Do you just make this stuff up? Lots of people who don't read will take your statement as a fact when its purely fantasy. Why would he go to Saratoga when the Travers was NEVER under consideration by MP and BB?

and the plan was to ship right back to Ca after the race till he got sick.

no, i don't make up stuff. i read they had considered several options including the travers. i also read that since he's in saratoga, they're considering the woodward. i had also read that baffert was more interested in running on dirt, rather than synthetic. yes, he was sick, and yes, they have decided to remain there. i think that has more to do with the desire to stay on dirt than the illness.


from bloodhorse:

Baffert said it was a stroke of luck that he kept Lookin At Lucky at Monmouth Park following the Aug. 1 Haskell because it would have been a worse situation if the colt had been shipped while having a fever. Baffert had previously considered shipping Lookin At Lucky to Saratoga, although he was not fully committed to running in the Travers.
