TRAINER Bob Baffert is "in high spirits" in hospital after emergency heart surgery on Monday, according to the owner of his Dubai World Cup contender Game On Dude.
Baffert, 59, suffered a heart attack early on Monday but is already
planning to be at Meydan on Saturday night to watch the World Cup.
"I just spoke to him and he's training from the bed," owner Bernie
Schiappa said on Tuesday morning. "I'd say the probability is very good
that he will be here on Saturday.
"He would come here now if he could and he says he'll have a doctor
with him to watch the race in case it gets too much - but that's Bob's
humour."
