re: Kentucky Derby Ratings are huge. 21.8 million viewers.

In the non racing world, you’ll eventually have to go into a horse’s joints for maintenance as they age if they are competitive on any level. I don’t jump mine much between shows because I’m trying to prolong not having to inject his hocks because once you start, you are stuck. It’s generally a once a year thing, but sometimes becomes twice a year.

These horses start having their joints hit at 2 and a lot of times
before every race. One of the things I really hate about racing. It all basically comes down to the breed to sell model and needing lightning fast two year olds. Fashionable sires like into mischief sell for a lot, but the maintenance is needed to keep them sound. They now say injections must be given 14 days out and reported, but they’ll never get rid of them.

Y’all have a lot of Justify babies over there now. His mom has never produced a sound horse. I believe he’ll pass that on so you’ll probably start seeing more breakdowns over there.

Has Leon won a race since? The trainer is 3%. I still lmao about the after burners reference. God, some of you really know nothing about racing.

I try to follow a good bit of international racing when I can. I’m pretty excited Jamie is bringing his over for the Preakness and I like following his daughter. I had toast to win the breeders cup last time he shipped over.

I have an I’ll have another hat.

I fully believe he would have won the Belmont. Being by flower alley, he’d have run for days.

To this day he is the only derby future I’ve cashed

My favorite horse of all time was also my favorite Preakness of all time: Sunday Silence

BS! People want to watch something that doesn't have whiny spoiled athletes complaining and love horses. The tradition alone of the Derby is worth the watch.

Curious about city numbers

St.Louis does very well in derby ratings, they love some degen horses
