OT: 2 down, 1 to go for I'll Have Another
A different kind of horse power was on display @ The Preakness today. I'll Have Another won again today in a great race down the stretch with BodemIester. It was another come from behind victory between these 2 just like the Kentucky Derby earlier this month. It gives I'll Have Another a chance at the Triple Crown if he can win the Belmont Stakes in early June.
This horse was bought for 35k at auction. The jockey had never raced at the derby or the Preakness. Horse has more heart than Ive seen in a long time. Triple Crown hasn't been won 34 years. I think this horse has a legitimate chance to do it. I know it isn't as fast as motor racing, but you'll enjoy both of these races if you can find replays online.
Can't wait for the Belmont !!
Taped both of the first two legs so I could fast forward the 2+ hour hype/crap and watching the end of yesterday's race I said (yelled) the exact same thing as the announcer (from my feed anyway) did..."He did it!", I couldn't fucken believe how close it was, totally amazing. Admittedly I have little clue of what I'm talking about with horse racing but I'll be shocked if I'll have another isn't the favorite in three weeks.
Haha Parcells..... I would have posted the videos if I was smart enough to figure it out. W/o all the pre-race stuff of course.
