Anyway you slice it 6 of the last 7 2 year old champs which won the first two legs succeeded in their quest to win TC. It's a fact and discounting it and or minimizing it is simply silly especially when you consider S Bid and his world class ability and bone head jock. To me AP is a stone cold cinch racing against nice colts certainly above par but hardily in his league. Materiality will get drowned when pressured by AP. Geez Upstart should have beat him
Listening to Baffert told you as much he NEVER thought Dortmund an undefeated Multiple Graded winner had a pray when they matched up and Dortmund is at least or shall we say as good or better then CC last year.
