When all four contenders in the Feb. 4 $196,000 Grade 3 Robert B. Lewis Stakes turned in the stretch, Bob Baffert had the rare luxury of winning the race before the race was even finished.
In a contest that boiled down to the battle of four Bob Baffert trainees, it was Grade 3 Sham Stakes runner-up Newgate who prevailed over Hard to Figure who was second.
