Anybody watch the Derby?

My Wife called me in from yard work just in time to watch. Hell of a horse to pull that off. mtmuley

Last to first in the final stretch. A horse with 24 to 1 odds. Quite a feat. Third place horse odds 70 to 1. Most interesting derby in a long time.

Incredible finish by Golden Tempo.

I was rooting for the horse whose jockey had the “Dude Wipes” logo down the side of his racing breeches.

Derby is a big deal around here. The wife was raised in Kentucky, her roots go back to the wilderness trail and Daniel Boone.Not related to him. She worked at Churchill Downs and one of the big horse farms as an exercise rider when she was a teen. Her family has a box about 20 yards past the finish line. We didn’t make it back this year will try for next year. It is a hell of a show.
This years was a hell of a good race.

I have watched the replay a couple times and am in awe of what that horse and jockey did. mtmuley

Great comeback. I wonder if we will have a triple crown winner this year.

It’s one of the best horse performances I’ve ever seen.
