2017 PA Derby/Cotillion

[Plenilune]

It was a fun day of racing. I had the happy honor to meet Steve Byk and Caton Bredar. They are such lovely people, I was excited to meet them.

I'm not that great of a photographer but here are some pics to share.

Thanks for sharing your great day at the races. I understand how you felt. Excellent!!! I have a feeling West Coast is another Baffert experiment that did not take the traditional path to being 3YO horse of the year. Impressive win!
