Longshot Wins the Derby

The biggest two minutes in sports occured yesterday: The 135th running of the Kentucky Derby.

Mine That Bird, a 50-1 longshot won the race by several lengths. Boy do I wish I had some money on that race. The horse gave $130.20 on a $2 bet.

That race was all Calvin Borel's. I like when a jockey embraces his win. That man could not have been happier, as he should be. I remember when he won a couple years ago on Street Sense, using that same signature move. Towards the end of the race he made a dramatic move on the rail, squeezing in between horses.

Congrats to Mine That Bird.
