Take this for what it's worth, but two separate times during the ESPN coverage on Saturday, Jerry Bailey speculated Barbaro was not the same horse as in Kentucky. He based this on the fact Barbaro was pacing extensively in his stall in Baltimore, but in Kentucky he was like a statue, always with his head out of the stall looking around. Bailey, of course, did not try to guess what was causing this, but definitely stated something was amiss.
