It looks like they were adjusted before they were released the first time.

Can you imagine if you were half as clever as you think you are?

I'm not clever enough to imagine anything, much less my own level of cleverness. So, no. I can't.

Whatever they decide on ... Bodemeister's improvement will look minor compared to Blueskiesnrainbow's last week.



Obviously a lot of similiarites with both Blueskies and Bode

* First time Blinkers Off for Baffert ... a stat Baffert is like 40% with an ROI hovering around $3.00

* Deneied the early lead last start -- loose on the lead and able to settle better without blinkers.

* Both have big route pedigree.

Blueskies got absolutely pissed on by stablemate Fed Biz in an alw race.

I don't think they are all that similar at all.
