Make that 2 for 8. I hope you had your money down.

What an interesting race. I've never seen that many horses
so close together rounding the stretch turn.

Nice race, really nice ride

well, i hope i won't be made out to be a fool, but i suggest that i
haven't seen a horse that good since (god help me) big red came down the
stretch in the belmont, in the greatest display of strength in recorded
history.

in short, i think this may be the next great horse. would someone
(tlitt, others...) sign on with an opinion?

You don't often see a Derby won by over six lengths and
Barbaro looked very comfortable doing it. On the other
hand Barbaro hadn't raced in five weeks. The Preakness
is in two weeks, we'll see.
