Pedigree Query

Okay, Baffert decided to split up his horses and kept Dortmund home to take on a GR III group in his 2nd start off a long layoff. Better move then rushing in to run against the GR I group in the Clark....Gary Stevens subs for Martin Garcia who will be aboard Hoppertunity in the Clark. Here's the entries and pp's. TJ
