What is wrong with Improbable?

Question

Finishes 6th and showed little interest......not sure how Baffert will get him right.

track notes from drf.com:

". IMPROBABLE , fractious in the starting gate, raced between horses the first turn, was well positioned in the three path leaving the backstretch, worked his way to the four path entering the stretch, drifted to the five path in upper stretch, then flattened out."

improbable  looks good, works well, has a beautiful  stride. could be  he don&#x27;t like to be between horses.  no focus. gate problems. baffert already went off and on blinks. as  bad  as ive ever saw a baffert  fav  run. he needs a long  break. hey  mike  I should have known  when that long range toddy  went by  him in Arkansas  race. don&#x27;t see many  baffert  horses  strike the front and  get passed in last 1/16. I haven&#x27;t  anyway..  Belmont  is mentioning 12  already  and  pletcher I think has another ..  if I was casse  I would  keep war of will til Haskell and try  maximum security. 3 races in 7 weeks is  a lot for any of them..

PHIL...you are right on with your comments. Lay him off for a while, hell, I&#x27;d try him on the turf later on the way Baffert did with Senior Swinger when he went sideways. Perhaps he should also consider training the horse to take the lead, the run him at a mile.
