The duel that we all expected between Complexity and Game Winner, was a joyful gallop for the son of Candy Ride, who beat an amazing Knicks Go (40-1) who had to yield to the powerful stride of the winner.
Joel Rosario, did a perfect job on the back of the pupil of Bo Baffert to graduate with great sense of passage to his horse and send him to the attack at the exact moment, the Dominican served with the big spoon to get two wins in the five races disputed, confirming the great moment that is happening.
The results in this day for Baffert, were more than satisfactory because in a single day two of his students are going to be considered as strong candidates for the Futurity that will run in Los Alamitos, to close the season in December.
Unlikely and Game Winner, both undefeated, won their respective commitments, although by dint of being sincere will not risk them so soon and surely will send other promises.
The first part of the BC, was with much Latin flavor because four Latin American riders managed to take the photo in the circle of winners, the Venezuelan Javier Castellano (Bulletin) and Irad Otiz Jr. (Newspaperofrecord) and Joel Rosario (Jaywalk-Game Winner) They were the heroes of the afternoon.
We can not fail to applaud the ride of European rider William Buick, who showed Franciscan patience in the BC Turf Juvenille and took the palms in the last meters of the race with a winning closing that allowed to place the Godolphin flag on a high .
A brief summary of this day gives the following comments:
Todd Pletcher, live!
No Mexican rider won
José Ortíz, went unnoticed
He finished the magic of Mike Smith
Until next time!
