BALTIMORE — Two weeks ago, Bob Baffert watched the Kentucky Derby in exile from his California home, and when it came time to head to Baltimore this week, he waited until almost the last possible moment. To some extent, neither Preakness week nor the entire Triple Crown series itself truly begins until the guy with the snow-white hair shows up. And this year, that occasion didn’t arrive until Friday morning, the day before the 149th running of the Preakness Stakes.
