I know that, thats why I did not comment on the race.

I do think the winner of the Derby is pretty good, he is not Mine That Bird who was right there with RA.

RA was hooked early with Big Drama, an eventual wire-to-wire Breeders' Cup Sprint winner.

Mine That Bird also gave a good account of himself in both the Derby and Belmont -- he was in good form at the time of the Preakness, and got a nice setup.

Fillies are 11-2-1-0 in the Kentucky Derby since 1945. A great record for a race that usually has a huge field size. Not many try the Preakness and Belmont.

Her sex doesn't matter to me. If anything, it's an advantage, because she gets a weight break for it.
