Concert Tour was a disappointing third as the 3-10 favorite in last Saturday’s Arkansas Derby (G1), but whether he starts in the first leg of the Triple Crown remains undecided. “Nothing yet,” said Baffert, who trains Concert Tour for owners/breeders Gary and Mary West. “I’ll be talking to Gary, but we wanted to give the horse a week and see what’s happening. “He looks good but there’s no decision yet.”
