this has been going on for years, with horses dodging each other for most of the season, if not all of it. it's why last years rachel campaign got so much buzz. it seems the only race this year where some of the best faced off was blame vs quality road.
but hey, if zenyatta gets a pass for racing nobodies all year, i guess lookin at lucky can do the same. baffert knows all he has to do is get to the bc in one piece and the 3 yo eclipse is his.
