Why Journalism’s Survival May Depend on This Unexpected Shift

#21 Baeza- 12/1. This lightly raced horse took 2nd behind Journalism in the Santa Anita Derby, beating two Baffert horses handily in the process. The outside post may be an issue, but this one seems to be the “IT” horse of the moment. Let’s not forget it was just a few years ago where the Also Eligible #21 horse got into the derby at the last minute and won the whole thing at 81-1!

Bob Baffert makes his untriumphant return:

Seven time, check that, six time Kentucky Derby winning trainer Bob Baffert is back after a three year suspension for Kentucky Derby Winner Medina Spirit’s positive drug test post race in 2021. He stables #1 Citizen Bull (20-1) who was the 2-yr old racing champion. His horse has one option: Go to the lead and try to hang on. The way Churchill Downs has been playing so far this week, gunning it from the start may prove a worthy proposition come Saturday.
