The Juvenile – Big Gray Rocket
2016 Record: (2) 1-1-0
Trainer: Bob Baffert
Jockey: Rafael Bejarano
Analysis: Baffert has a more established two year old in Klimt, but Big Gray Rocket looks like the most talented youngster in the barn. On closing day at Del Mar he ran like a monster to defeat a group of maidens, and most undoubtedly will be pointing towards graded stakes now. After this weekend’s big win by Not This Time he now has to be taken seriously as well, but I’ll stick to my guns until I see Big Gray Rocket’s last prep race.
