That was a great race, what a run at the end.
Unreal that horse was in a claims race last September.

$36,000 if I use the 10 instead of the 6. Sorry fellas.
Hindsight is 20/20. We'll make it up in the next one!
So funny story. I went into a local establishment here to pick up a pizza. They had a derby pool going so put in money to pick a horse out of a cup. They had already picked over the last week. I know them well so one of them said there was one left. Paid the money and got the winning horse. When I first picked it I was like oh shit this sucks.
As soon as I say a 45 second half mile I said…well…it’s gonna be a closer winning this thing. Epicenter ran a good race to stay there.
Well. Horseshoe close! Either way, thanks for the effort you put in
He was in that I knew a bomb would hit somewhere which is why I played ALLs on the tickets. Not him specifically though. He did have the fourth highest closing speed on Brisnet so I believed if there was a pace meltdown (which there was) he’d have a shot at coming in the top four. Never had him winning though.
Funny. As soon as I saw this I said “Take the camera off him you idiots”, You’re showing a horse get the shit beat out of it on national TV. Not good for the sport.
The dude sort of looks like Alex Karras so there is that.
Jockey did an amazing job - had some breaks too — which always helps. Great video here.
Will be interesting to see who comes back. Epicenter should run away with it because he's not gonna get that pace and if he does he can probably survive it. Messier might want to take a look as well. I could see Secret Oath taking a shot and being competitive. Ethereal Road, Smile Happy and Zandon will all probably make the trip. Zozos could be a good value if it gets a better post.

He had no chance anyway. Nor in the Belmont. Just like in the Derby. 😧Derby winner Rich Strike won't run Preakness

It's always a bummer when the Derby winner doesn't even get a chance at the triple crown
Lol…I was just gonna give you the horse!
Friday Race 13 at Pimilco
3- Miss Yearwood
Morning line is 20/1
Might be worth a small play across the board or in an exacta or Tri.
