Trainer Bob Baffert wants to share American Pharoah with fans

 (Associated Press)

Bob Baffert, the trainer of Triple Crown winner American Pharoah, said Wednesday at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California, that the 3-year-old would run again this year, but no decision has been made about when or where his next race will be. “Our goal is to get to the Breeders’ Cup,” he said. “All kinds of tracks are calling, ‘Please, could you think of bringing him here?’ ” American Pharoah will be paraded on the track at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, on Saturday. Baffert said American Pharoah (pictured) was scheduled to return to Santa Anita on June 18 and would also train later this year at Del Mar in preparation for the Breeders’ Cup Classic on Oct. 31 at Keeneland in Lexington, Kentucky. “Winning a Triple Crown is bringing so much enjoyment to the sport of racing,” Baffert said. “We’re going to share him.” – Los Angeles Times
