Preakness

Congratulations to Calvin Borel for riding Rachel Alexandra first across the Preakness finish line! It may not have been the same horse he rode to an amazing victory in the Kentucky Derby, but it was still an amazing win. A filly has not won the Preakness since 1924.
Wow. You go girl.

As a horse lover and owner of three Thoroughbred racehorses, it is no doubt that I hold a certain fondness for the Kentucky Derby. I am currently displeased with the Thoroughbred racing industry. However, I still cannot give up my adoration for the Derby.
Since I am still on vacation, we decided to make the most of it and return to a wonderful pub in Norwalk to enjoy an early dinner while watching the Derby. There was even a pool going, but I decided not to participate since my favorite, I Want Revenge, scratched early this morning. I had my hopes on Hold Me Back but it wasn't in the cards. Instead, a lovely longshot took the Kentucky Derby by storm.
Congratulations to Mine That Bird and Jockey Calvin Borel on an amazing race!
