   Yup. Had to look at his cheat sheet when he suddenly noticed that somebody had passed his “trio” by 3 lengths.

   I live in Batavia NY we have the downs.I have watched people bet their life away on the favorites.Isn’t it funny how the favorites rarely win?

    I used to want to be a jockey, but then everyone told me I couldn’t, but seeing a race like that…wow, just gets me going, I was screaming and yelling when Mine That Bird was coming down the stretch, everyone I was with just kind of looked at me and walked away…yeah, I’m a horse racing- wanna be- geek. But I love it!

    The best horse of the day won, - but maybe MTB just loves mud.

    I agree with whoever noticed how awful the announcing was. He called the horse “Summer Bird” and then later, wen MTB took the lead, he yeled “Pioneer of the Nile” — while MTB was moving ahead of the pack and then, with MTB a clear winner, he said “is … uh… Mine That Bird” and then called the win “impossible.” It reminded me of Simon Cowell and Susan Boyl! LOL! I agree, also with whoever said that MTB may like sloppy tracks — whatever, though, he was FLYING at the end.

    that’s tom durkin and he’s a legendary announcer. you wouldn’t have known that that was mine that bird either. 50 -1…he probably wasn’t even on the first page of his list of runners.

    That was an AWESOME Derby !! Congratulations to Borail & Mine that Bird The Preakness will be quite interesting. I can’t wait !! Oh, by the way, Tom Durkin used to call the races for Hialeah years ago, before Brunetti closed the Track in 2001. Please RE-OPEN Hialeah, for Thoroughbred Racing.

    Didnt he win by the largest length since Barbaro?? Didnt barbaro win the derby by 6?

    Mine That Bird proved he was for real in the Preakness a little less traffic and we may be looking at the next Triple Crown winner he ought to romp in the preakness the extra length should be a distinct advantage for this horse and it doesnt matter if calvin borel mike smith or an apache indian chief ride him the horse is good and should be remembered as an extremely talented horse if the preakness was the same length or a little longer than the derby he would have caught rachael alexandra
