$11.2 billion bet on U.S. racing in 2024. That mark is down $400 million from 2023.

The average purse distribution per race set an industry record at $40,593.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

BARNES is named after Jimmy Barnes, Bob Baffert's longtime assistant and cost $3.2 million. Won his debut. The San Vincente is not an official Kentucky Derby prep but Baffert has tried this route in the past.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

BARNES opened it up with a stretch drive that decimated the competition. He was sent off the co-even money favorite. No match. Bon Baffert finished 2-2 with ROMANESQUE, a $675,000 purchase, placing at 7-to-1. A healthy $14 exacta with Baffert's horses.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

An Iowa-bred aptly named Cyclone State won the Kentucky Derby prep at Aqueduct (NY). Three wins in a row for the victor.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Bob Baffert's barn put on a show today at Santa Anita. He won all four races in which he entered and finished 1-2 twice.

Iowa-bred?
