  • ruffian75 · icy, funny you mention that. Romans was the original trainer, but the owners(s)? decided to transfer First Dude to Baffert. It might have been for their aspiration to go west, where there was nice purse money. But, it seems, that First Dude got the better of Game On Dude, before succumbing to injury. Now, GOD is the kingpin. Funny how time changes things. · 256 days ago ·
