Amazing, Heroic 2009 Kentucky Derby Overhead Replay - Mine that Bird
Includes overhead replay. A 50:1 long-shot “Mine that Bird” comes from last place to win the Kentucky Derby in one of the greatest, most amazing races ever run. At the end of the race he takes the inside rail and starts passing horses like they are standing still. He does this so quickly, the guy calling the race doesn’t even mention the name until he is already in first place and wins. This video replay of the race also shows an aerial overhead view of “Mine that Bird”’s amazing run.

It was reported he ran the last 3/8 of a mile of the kentucky derby 2nd fastest of all time.Second only to the one and only Secretariat, so just knowing that should of told the people who said he was fluke that he wasnt and that in fact he is for real and in the preakness even though he didnt win he was charging like a freight train from last place again 18 lengths behind all the way to the heels of that awesome filly RA..

Might be the strangest Kentucky Derby of all time: Not only did a fifty-to-one longshot win, but not a single “favorite” finished in the money; in fact, none of them even came close. Whew! And consider this: Those horses that looked like they were running in quicksand at the end weren’t some rinky dink animals- they were the best horses in the world…..

Did you all hear Bo-Rail actually made contact with the rail! He had paint left on his boot! And, during a recent workout at Churchill, he made contact AGAIN in the same spot as Derby day - INCREDIBLE!

Actually, “Pioneer of the Nile” WAS one of the favorites, and Pioneer of the Nile was IN THE MONEY, placing 2nd. Even Gary Stevens was quoted to say that he thought Pioneer of the Nile would win the Derby.

But looking back at MTB’s record in Canada, it shouldn’t come as a surprise. MTB had won all his (4 of 4) races in Canada as a 2 yr old. Perhaps he just needed some time to adjust to his new environment. He was running on synthetics up there in Canada, and he went from being 1st to 12th when he switched owners mid October 2008.

anyone that knows alot about racing? do you think borell was keeping this horse on the driest part of the track, against the rail, knowing the other horses would fade running in the slop/ He said after the race that the other horses just quit, maybe they were worn out running in the slop?

I Still Think The Best Horse Didn;t Win
I Think Pioneerof The Nile Was
he Was Up There With That Quick Pace , Not Allowing Him to Get Many Breathers
And Not Allowing Him To kick On Again ,
