What a breakthrough year for Curlin, who not only sired his 1st Derby winner (though he was previously represented as the grandsire of Mage) but is found in the pedigrees of each of the top 3 finishers. He is cementing his legacy as an endemic influence in the Thoroughbred genome

@DRFHersh @hhhracingpod I have been asking for pre-race conformation pictures for every starter to be posted Derby week for the last 15 years. They could be taken on the day before the race and if we were really trying to be transparent, we might even include a weigh in.

@hhhracingpod Everyone should be a gallop-out person! Every piece of information counts if you really want to get down to it!

Can I ask for the zillionth time why most tracks won't properly show a gallop-out? Is there a powerful organization of owners lobbying for truncated, zoomed-in shots on winners in order to glory in their victory? Can someone tell me the downside of doing it right?

@stoolpresidente @stoolgambling Our family broke Rich Strike who won the Kentucky Derby, everyone said he had no shot! He got in the race because of a late scratch too! Best of luck to a great promoter of our sport!

Hats off to all the staff @SilverSpringsKY who helped MIGHTY MOLLY (Blame - Mighty Frio by Pulpit) deliver this beautiful colt by KANTHAROS for owner-breeder Pete Mattson. The dam is booked next to SPEAKER’S CORNER.

The Hawthorne mascot emerged from his den on this gorgeous morning to remind us that we’re all still hanging in there. #stillhere #notdoneyet

I think an underrated "can you imagine social media if this happened today" moment in horse racing is the 1980 @PreaknessStakes and the non DQ of Codex over @KentuckyDerby winner Genuine Risk.

@DRFRampellini A race on the undercard on Arkansas Derby day 1994: Glenn and Sharon Hild’s BOOZING leading in a gate to wire effort, with each passing call, Terry stretching out the horse’s name. “It’s BOOOOZINNG!” The infield crowd went bananas.
