I think I played Thirty Six Red. He was a Slew...he died too young, just like the winner Unbridled.

That was the first year (I was 9 ) that I picked the derby winner. RIP to Unbridled. Heck of a horse he was...

The first race I ever watched as a kid was Easy Goer's Wood Memorial and I was hooked onto horse racing. What an addiction to have!

I should mention that I did NOT pick Unbridled for any other reason other than I liked his name.

A truly moving race. You don't see many Derby winners come from that far off the pace but Unbridled made his big move at the right time and never stopped.

Also, Unbridled was a complete gentleman. Easily the most classy, professional racehorse I have ever heard of. He would stand in his stall and let Dr. Harthill and Fischer do whatever they needed to do....scope him, etc... he was super confident and proud of who he was and that was echoed in the super classy, confident trainer he had....who also has a Derby prospect this year..what is his name????

Long before my time that I was interested in horse racing...but that was

1. a very nice race by Unbridled
2. a very touching moment for the owner and trainer.
