BALTIMORE — Bob Baffert was back in his element, standing outside the stakes barn, talking with friends, talking to owners, talking to reporters.
He held his first media scrum at about 7:15 a.m. Friday.
"I'm like [Gustavo] Delgado, I don't speak English," he said with a laugh, referring to the trainer of Kentucky Derby winner Mage, who isn't a native English speaker and has his son do most of the interviews. "He's smart. Talk to [my son] Bode."
