Santa Anita - STABLE NOTES BY ED GOLDEN Tuesday September 25, 2012

GAME ON DUDE HAS HOME COURT ADVANTAGE IN AWESOME AGAIN

Game On Dude hasn’t disappointed Bob Baffert often since he took over as trainer of the 5-year-old gelding two years ago. Sure, Game On Dude has lost a few races in that span, but overall, he’s been a consistent money winner against world-class competition, winning eight of 19 career starts, six of them stakes.

Baffert hopes Game On Dude maintains his perfect record at Santa Anita on Saturday when he heads the inaugural running of the Awesome Again Stakes, formerly the Goodwood Stakes, at 1 1/8 miles on the main track.
