Well yeah...
But I can't help but wonder if the result would have been the same if Freisian Fire and I Want Revenge had been competitive. Still the Bird had a convincing stretch run! Very exciting!
That was awesome...I was crying when it was over...loved it!
I LOVE the Derby! LIVE for it! Have since I was six years old...use to be able to rattle off every winner... Our cable sucked yesterday and I did not get to watch it! That made me cry even more (I normaly cry when it is over). Am looking for re-runs today... I am so SAD!
It was the ONLY thing that cheered my husband yesterday. Today he is feeling much better and I am so glad for that.
Can I be honest? I missed the race. Can I be honest again? I don't understand the whole thing. I recognize it is a sport but never have been a pony girl.
But I love the title "The Year of the Bird"...it has sooo many meanings! :)
I swear I couldn't believe it. When watching the replay of the race by aerial cam...OMG I stood up and cheered again...my gawd that horse came out of nowhere....a round of MInt Juleps for everyone...on me.
This is a great photo. I don't know anything about the derby, but I love all the horses--'n stuff like that :)
I love races, love horses. We used to go to Charles Town, WV, periodically and bet on the ponies there. Once I won a hundred bucks on a long shot and thought I was going to faint. Instead, I just drank a beer.
Had no idea the derby was on. Beautiful horse.
Of course, I missed it. Wonder if it's on youtube yet. Off to find out.
Sadly, I missed it. The Bird. How awesome with the meanings...this tears me up more than the race would have but happy tears, Mama. Happy ones. The E-Bird will soar :)
Thanks for the You Tube advice Annie. OMG what a comeback!
LMAO thats no where near as gross as those lucite platforms you keep showing us LMAO
That was such an exciting race. What a finish
Wasn't that a fabulous race? It gave me goosebumps! Yep, year of the Bird it is!
I'm all for the underdog. It was an exciting race!
Saw this -- what an exciting finish. So good to see a virtual unknown take first.
It was an exciting race ... loved the Canjun jockey!
I love the ponies too!
