OCEANPORT, N.J. - Trainer Bob Baffert said the one thing he hoped for most coming into Saturday's $2omillion Breeders' Cup Sprint at Monmouth Park with Midnight Lute was that the best horse would win.
And, boy, did he ever!
Midnight Lute left little doubt that he's the best sprinter in the country, overcoming a slow start to win the six-furlong Breeders' Cup Sprint by a widening 4 3/4 lengths over Idiot Proof.
