all in Triple Crown

It was two years ago when trainer Shug McGaughey followed Florida's Road to the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve to a second-place finish with Code of Honor in the Run for the Roses.

Activity resumes Saturday on California’s Road to the Kentucky Derby and — surprise, surprise — trainer Bob Baffert is at the center of it.

Patrick O’Neill, nephew to two-time Kentucky Derby-winning trainer Doug O’Neill and bloodstock agent Dennis O'Neill, had a different interest from most college kids when he was an undergraduate student and a member of the football team at Brown University.

The $200,000, Grade 3 Holy Bull Stakes begins the three race series for sophomores at Gulfstream Park. The series continues with the Fountain of Youth Stakes, and ends with the Florida Derby.

Question: How many times has Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert won the $100,000, Grade 3 Robert B. Lewis Stakes at Santa Anita Park?

If you answered “a bunch of times,” well… you’re technically correct. Though the more precise answer is eight times, including four of the last six editions.
