He then won the Grade 3 Robert B. Lewis, also at eight-and-a- half furlongs at Santa Anita on Feb. 1 before his disappoint- ment in the San Felipe. After the San Felipe, Baffert said that Thousand Words was closer to the :22.84 first-quarter pace set by Authentic than he had expected. ”I know they were going quick and I knew Thousand Words was closer and I probably learned a lot from him,” Baffert said. “He doesn’t want to be that close. He sort of flattened out at the end. I was disappointed with him.” Bred in Florida by Amy Tarrant’s Hardacre Farm in Ocala, Fla., Thousand Words has earned $235,000 in his four starts for owners Albaugh Family Stables LLC and Spendthrift Farm LLC.

He has won one of three starts with earnings of $68,500 and Joseph Rocco Jr. will ride from post 11.
