Did Mystik Dan's rider get in trouble for that jostle when he pushed through the teeny gap at the top of the stretch?
Reckless, but it paid off :/

But I doubt it would have changed the result.

Very exciting finish!

Only chose him because my grandson’s name is Daniel. I even went as far as filling out half an online bet form but in the end decided that even the $25 minimum bet was too much to lose, since the horse was so far down the list of winners.

Well, I did win a dollar and family bragging rights. And a lump on my forehead from banging my head against the wall.

Not having much luck though. I count 11 legs, but it's a tricky photo.

Or whatever it's called. Blinders maybe?

Just happened to tune in, about a minute before the race commenced. Thanks for nothing, sports shows---I missed all the hours of endless silly hats, bourbon drinking, and inane commentary. Congrats, Mystik Dan.

Horses continue to die and continue to suffer in the name of racing. But sure yack it up, place your bets and have your fun.
