Great race. I didn’t lose any money thanks to Great White flipping out.

Louisville is the armpit of America.

That was one of the more insane closing runs I’ve seen in a long time. Wow.
That was crazy from the overhead view on the last turn.

That horse was almost dead last at the last turn. How many lengths back do you think he was?

Renegade ran his eyeballs out. He just got hammered at the start. Will be the best 3 year old going forward.

Seriously. The only other one that comes to mind is Rich Strike weaving around traffic like he had a rocket up his arse, but even he wasn't dead last at the top of the stretch.

Mine that Birds closing run will always be the best for me, but this was impressive.

I put $70 on Golden Tempo. My dumb beginner luck. Only bet. Not rigged.

Fair Grounds horses always do well in Kentucky, but they've been absolutely dominating the place this spring.
So what's Churchill and the racing office going to do this time? Cut purses again? Eliminate stakes for open horses again? Squeeze stall space for top trainers again?
New York is going plastic track in the winter.
The opportunity to have a real major race meet in NOLA is there. How can FG have such low purses compared to low-handle tracks like Colonial and Ellis? Wake up, La Racing Commission.
And Congrats to Golden Tempo and Cherie DeVaux.
