Title: Baby Yoda track record
Post by: Oliver Clozoff on June 14, 2025, 05:34:58 PM

Apparently in Race 8 on 6/13/25 at the Big A Baby Yoda went 6.5 in 1:13 and change shattering a 30 year track record.  I timed it twice and got 1:15 and 3/5ths both times.  Somebody else time it and let me know what you get.

I got 1:15 flat, but sometimes tracks have runups before the timer begins.

Easy to tell, just look for where the 6 1/2 f pole is.

There aren't any poles for 6 1/2 furlongs, not even a small one.

I can understand why the time can be questioned...as there was another track record on the same card

I am sure the experts are viewing the video and clocking it

Serling always mentions there is a guy at Timeform US that does it
