That was classy for Johnny V to give him props right after the race

Yeah so happy for Johnny and Graham Motion. What happens with the mount in the future? I assume you'd keep the jockey that just won the Derby for you. Does Robby get the horse back eventually?

ETA: They're doing a Derby post show on Versus right now til 7:30pm EST. Glad I decided to channel surf.

I don't. I hope he doesn't beat his wife again. I would go in the witness protection program right now if I were her.

Yep, another year, another stack of torn up losing tickets. Congrats to the connections of Animal Kingdom...lets see, hadn't raced in 6 weeks, had only 4 lifetime starts, only 8 points in DP and, oh yeah, never raced on dirt...an obvious winner...$43.80, seems like should have been twice that. First six finishers all came from 11 post outward. I thought Rosie did her best on Pants on Fire, had him perfectly placed but simply ran out of horse, Dialed In never a factor, big effort from Nehro and Mucho Macho Man. Congrats to everyone who cashed today, you deserve it!

He's run several big races in the span of a short time. AK was much the best, but he ran so well again. I would guess they'd skip the Preakness with him and point for the Belmont.......Nice horse who has come a long way in a short time.

Have you guys looked at Animal Kingdom's pedigree? How that horse lifts a foot on dirt is beyond me. OTOH, great for Graham Motion. What a classy guy, and as I was reminded about 35 times today, one of the very few remaining trainers out there without a drug infraction on his record.
