In case anyone missed it, Baffert said Game Winner will skip the Belmont.

You mean the Dollar Bill that was second in the Preakness and got a lot of terrible trips....compared to the Bourbon War that was up the track in the Preakness and has mostly gotten good trips?

Please, enlighten me about how they are similar.

No, I'm referring to the Dollar Bill that was 4 for 22 and out of the money in all 3 legs of the Triple Crown.

No pace to run at 2 back, and Didn't like those blinkers last time. Smith will ride him like Zenyatta and be moving well at the end to be along in time.

I will probably regret it but he’s tossed for me, even though I never liked adding the blinkers to begin with.

I have a hard time liking him here. Need to be near front and can’t see him being close enough. Tax is going to be an inclusion for me here as throwout the derby he’s right type to be close enough.
