That was an incredibly exciting horse race.

The announcer was a bit clueless as he didn’t pick up on Sierra Leone until very late.

I don’t usually watch whichever one comes next but will be tuning in this year.

Beautiful pony! Gotta love a blood bay with chrome. And Mr. Prospector in his lineage! (Still regret that I didn’t breed my Shuvee mare to him in the 80s when his stud fee was reasonable.)

Why not just post an actual photo instead of a Twitter link?

Boy, you missed an opportunity there! Check this out, last paragraph. Secretariat’s legend lives in all but two of the contenders.

There’s a dispute as to whether it’s Beetlebaum or Feetlebaum.

"There’s a dispute as to whether it’s Beetlebaum or Feetlebaum."

Feetlebaum was linked to Doodles Weaver.

“Horse Race (Beetle Bomb)”: This is one of Spike Jones’ classics from the late 1940s. It’s a lively and comical tune that features unconventional instruments, sound effects, and humorous lyrics.

There was those who didn't care for "Bomb"; so they went "Kosher"; and changed it to "Baum". Either way; Beetle Bomb, or Beetlebaum; its still funny.

Spike Jones, the man that murdered music
