2007 Racehorse Tribute

Monday, August 8th, 2011


I could only find good footage of Zanjero, Cobalt Blue, Street Sense, Any Given Saturday and Dominican… and I’m really only a big fan of Zanjero… but it’ll do, because horses+dinosaur music=awesome. As for my Derby pick? I’m enamoured with Curlin. Footage (C) Keeneland Race Course (I think all of it) Music (C) James Newton Howard and Disney EDIT: I have become a silenced critic. Street Sense was awesome in the Derby yesterday, but I was also very impressed with Curlin, Hard Spun, Tiago and Zanjero. They were four of seven horses who actually moved forward in the final eighth – and Zanjero was cost a major run when Street Sense dodged into a sweet rail spot that both Borel and Zanjero’s jockey saw. Oh, well. Tough luck. I’m still going to root against Street Sense in the Preakness, but if he wins that, he’s got my support in the Belmont and beyond. EDIT 2: Score! #46 – Most Viewed (Today) – Pets & Animals – All (May 6) EDIT 3: Muhahahaha. It’s Belmont day. Curlin was awesome in the Preakness. I’m hoping for a repeat! EDIT 4: Well, that was the most awesome Belmont since Secretariat’s. THEY WERE BOTH INCREDIBLE. w00t! Note the very very fast last quarter.
