You could hear the cheers through the satellite feed on Calracing.com for Mine That Bird once Denman announced his name in the post parade

Tiago looks like an overlay at 7-1. Then again, this is just a prep race for him. But still, it's not often he's that high of a price.

Was sitting here watching the post parade and it appears Richards kid is pretty small. Either that or that a big horse the Pony rider is on.

Great if you're a limey.

Richard's Kid would of won if Solis didn't go wide around the turn. It is the absolute worst place to be on that horrible surface.

Didn't seem to bother Zenyatta ---- if you have it, you have it! And Sheriffs says she's much better on dirt....

Another perfect illustration of what synthetics have done to racing.

Santa Anita should bring in a few dentists on BC weekend for free cleanings.

California racing is funnier than MadTV and Saturday Night Live combined. Hilarious stuff. Mine that Bird didn't look comfortable on that stuff at all. First town down the stretch, you could see he was not running comfortably. Good thing they wasted a race on this stuff to see that.

I can't stop laughing.

However, I will be making hotel reservations in Louisville for 2010 as soon as the hotels start taking them.

The Goodward was a great example of why a derby winner is always overbet, derby winner's will always take their share of money but 3-1 2nd choice and for most co favorite hovering around 5-2 from post 10 was puzzling...

Mine That Bird was a huge overlay off at a generous price compared to Swift Temper.

At least Mine That Bird had a nice 12th place finish over the track in the BC Juvie. Swift Temper couldn't even crawl on the stuff she was running on.

But Dale Romans said that she "Galloped over the track great."
