May 5th 2012 The winner is

2012  Saturday May 5th Derby Winner
After an exciting two minutes here is this years winner. Now, Next two Races
are a head of him. Maybe we will get a triple Crown winner this year.
It's about time.  Maybe Next year a Filly will win.. HERE HE IS:::

I'll Have another  a real winner




















I think 20 horses is just to many horses for a race.
It makes it dangerous
having so many in the race. Wish it was 12 horses.

Last years winner. Animal Kingdom
This was a shock to me  . I really didn't even
have him on my 3 choices. He looks like he knows he
is a true Champion.





















I remember watching Barbaro win the 132
Kentucky Derby.  This was a big horse.



























 As you can tell, I love the Races. Now, lets get a mint Julip and
talk about todays race. Have a restfull Sunday my 
Dear Blogger friends.

Oh Yvonne I did not give him a thought either. My son won some money on him. It is always so exciting. I will enjoy the next two for sure. Just waiting is exciting.

Dear Yvonne, the race was a cliff hanger, wasn't it? I really thought Bodemeister would hold on, what a trooper! My son's pick was I'll Have Another... bred in Kentucky and trained by a fellow Canadian!! Two weeks till the Preakness, in Baltimore....the second leg of the Triple Crown! So much to anticipate! We were in Vegas this weekend for a dear friends birthday, it was fun watching it there!! N.xo
