Mine That Bird and home town jockey Calvin Borel proved to the world that the long shot was just as good or better.
Mine That Bird was an inexpensive yearling that was bought for $9500. This may sound expensive if you are not in the … (12 comments)

Spring Meet at Keeneland Race Track...Priceless!
In Kentucky there is nothing like a nice warm Spring day at Keeneland Racetrack. The current Spring meet is April 4 - 25. Next meet is in October.
I plan to spend my day there tomorrow with fellow AR member Connie King from Tenessee. She is coming up for a visit and to spend some time enjoying the weather. It will be her first time at Keeneland.
Kentucky locals go to Keeneland race track to watch the people...out of towners go to watch the horses!

churchill downs: Barbaro's Brother in Kentucky - Future Triple Crown Winner - 04/29/07 05:06 PM
Barbaro's Brother in Kentucky - Future Triple Crown Winner
Last year was heartbreaking as we saw the breakdown of Barbaro in the 2006 Preakness and followed his recovery.
His injury had not broken the skin and Dr. Bramlege felt he might be saved. So we watched as this brave horse struggled to live for 8 months.  Despite valiant efforts of his doctors, owners and fans he had to be put to sleep. For my friends that followed Barbaro and The Kentucky Derby I saw this clip today of Barbaro's brother.

churchill downs: A Bad Day at Keeneland is Better Than A Good Day At Work! - 04/16/07 07:25 AM
Out-of-towners show up to see the horses but Kentuckians go there to watch the people.
Keeneland Race Track in Lexington is quite a legendary place and horse race aficionados will tell you that there is no place in the world like it.
It is with out a doubt the most beautiful race track anywhere. A jewel-box showcase for owners to present their best horses to well heeled spectators and serious horse people.
It's hard to put it into words, but here it is about pageantry, nobility, elegance and thrill of Thoroughbred racing. The feel here is very much like racing in England. My … (9 comments)
