Hollywood play for Saturday (12/15) Hollywood - Race 8
#6 Battled (3/1 ml)
Hard not to like this one. Bob Baffert colt brought $300,000 at the May Barrett's sale (over 20 times the sire's stud fee) after working a furlong in 10 seconds flat (one tick off the show's best), and has recently worked heads-up on two different occasions (Dec 2 and Nov 19) with Flashback, who came out of those drills to win impressively with a 93 Beyer last weekend. Should be tough to handle.
