LOL. Somewhere you need to filter in green early, drifted out, and faltered

All I hear is good things about Elite Alex but every race he seems to have a million excuses afterward.He better get it figured out if the connections want to land a spot in the Derby field

[DaHoss]

Does Baffert gut his in the race prior to the Derby or does he race them to peak in the Derby?

He usually has them ready to peak on Derby day but I don't think he thought The Factor was derby material until his last race so he might have had him peak too early
