Bob Baffert Running Quotations

She was sitting on a race like this. I was leery about running her on this track but all the riders said it was safe.

Silver Charm had the ideal running style. You could put him on the lead, or take back. He was smart and intelligent, a push-button horse to ride.

He needs distance. When they start running a mile-and-an-eighth, that's when the cream rises to the top.

We went a little fast early. I'm just getting to know the horse, and we need to get him to relax a little bit. He showed some determination in the stretch, and I think we can improve off that. We are running against the best two-year-olds in the country, so I am pleased. Hopefully, he comes back in great shape. He's got a good future ahead of him and we're going to take our time with him.

Everything went good; everything went to plan. Point of Impact, he's not running. We'll find a race for him. Running three in there is enough.

I feel better running here. I wasn't thrilled about the mile and a quarter, or about shipping. A lot of horses have been floundering on the track back there.
