There is a short video clip (0:13) on the website narrated by Bob himself, apparently taken from his phone.

LOW KEY? Now I know Louis is living in a parallel universe.

I have never seen BB get mad or all stressed out. He handles his job with grace. I will talk to him about his blockages, I saved Buz Ferman's life 5 years ago, Buz was a farrier, now retired.

Buz had 95 % blockages, I told him to take 1 teaspoon of grape seed powder to rotor rutter his veins. Buz took my advice & is now close to 80, he dosent have any more blockages.

Baffert's problem is blocked arteries, not veins. There's a significant difference.
