Derby Aftermath

The one eyed horse PATCH was assigned post position twenty on the far outside. That combined with the muddy track and PATCH was no match for those conditions.

THUNDER SNOW was flown in from Dubai just for the Derby. He stumbled out of the gate and walked back to his barn. A long flight for a short walk.

The winning horse ALWAYS DREAMING is owned by a billionaire Wall Street trader. He allowed  his jockey to wear tights embazoned with an ad for a steak house. I hope he changes his pants before they get to Saratoga in August otherwise the Vanderbilts and Whitneys will be aghast. (And I doubt that Andy Rooney would approve either.)
