I’m so glad one of the horses I betted on got first. I was pushing more for Looking at Lucky and Sidney’s Candy though. My dad told me Ice Box was going to get secon d or third but I didn’t bet on him. Would of got 20 more bucks. Oh well.
I had Paddy O’Prado to win, then in the following order: Ice Box, Noble’s Promise and Line of David. Oh well, I got one right. Paddy was impressive! I want him in the Preakness. I wasn’t too thrilled by Super Saver himself–just the way Calvin rode. Gah, jockeys, watch for Calvin.
Calvin is the man!!!! He had to ask that horse for a lot! He was whipping the lights out of that horse!! Experience made him won that race. Ice Box could have easily won that race if it had someone like Calvin riding him. I think if Calvin was riding Ice Box that horse could have beat that field by far!! Ice Box made a very strong comeback at the end. Well thats just me thinking, i dont know much about horse racing but i love to watch it!
