And the Sore Loser Award goes to.....

It was a race, and California Chrome lost. I didn't hear Coburn complaining before the race. Unbecoming.

Racing horses is wrong in my opinion. I'm no tree-hugging PETA type, I just think it's demeaning to the animals. If people want to have a road race, throw on a pair of sneakers and use your own body to run a race. And those jockeys are kind of strange - there's just something a little bit...off - with them.

As for the current controversy, didn't this Google Chrome horse come in fourth? So the horse would have lost the race anyhow it appears to me.

apparently class does not come with the purchase of a great horse.

There is always the horse and then sometimes the horse’s a$$ is another thing.

The Triple Crown is not like kindergarten soccer, where everybody gets a trophy. It is supposed to be nearly impossible, so only the most extraordinary horses will win it.
