Exciting race! I just got home in time to watch it. Very impressive comeback!
To: HairOfTheDog
I feel kinda bad for Todd Pletcher. He had five in and none of them hit the board.

It was an impressive win.
I'll say it was...What a charge from the back; it was a great Run for the Roses!

And I like the fact that the jockey was sponging the mud off the horse as they took their lap.
Now it's Pimlico and a mile-and-three-sixteenths! I expect to see Hardspun there .... he was running well at the front, and I wonder how he'd do on a dry fast track.

They just showed the overhead view of the race- what a great ride by Calvin Borel.

I’ll go in the other room and ask her - MOM??????
LOL - I don’t think i heard if she placed a bet.
Besides, her PEOPLE would place the bet.

Hard Spun was great too. Interesting to see the rematch at Pimlico.

Great race, and the horse that won is a beautiful creature.
Does anyone have a pic of the Queen’s hat? I missed that part.

"next year he (Todd Pletcher) has to enter even more horses".
It sure seems like the racing gods don't like multiple entries by the same trainer. He had a few in last year as I recall, and had about the same outcome.

Wow! The Queen’s hat matches the wallpaper! Did she get a ‘heads up’ on the decor, or something? ;o)

I like it when the winning jockey cries unashamed! Go Calvin! If Calvin is anything like the Cajuns I used to know who lived around Thibodaux LA he won't sober up until about this time next week.
