effective option for Baffert in the Classic than Coil will? My knock on Prayer For Relief is the same as some of the other American horses lining up for the Classic. How many times over the years in the Classic have we seen horses good enough to win at 1-1/16 and 1-1/8. But they end up fading away in that final 1/8th mile in the Classic trying to stay that 1-1/4 trip. It's happened a lot over the years.
Prayer for Relief is clearly a horse that's improving at the right time for Bob Baffert. He was actually a bit of a late bloomer for Baffert. As he was actually running in an Allowance Race at Hollywood Park a month after the Kentucky Derby had been run. But since, he's managed to win the Iowa Derby, West Virginia Derby, and now the Super Derby. I can't say I think Prayer For Relief is good enough this year to win the BC Classic? But he deserves his shot. He may end up being a more....contd....
