WHO WON THE KENTUCKY derby yesterday?
597563
Barbaro won it easily but there were 20 horses in the race and that is far too many.\n\nIt's dangerous and also tough on the horses who have to start away outside and run much further than those on the inside.\n\nIt's very hard to get through holes with so many horses in front of you and 12 to 14 should be the limit in any big race even if the track is a big one.

The horse needs to stay calm and relaxed. No energy can be used due to nerves or excitement. Race is on the track not in the barn. You do not feed the horse after 7 AM-no treats/no carrots, nothing. No morning workout the day before or race day, any and all races. Racehorses are the sole responsibility of the trainer even though the backbone of the racing industry is the owner of the horse...no owner-... no horse, no jockey, no trainer, no ferrier, etc. It all starts with the owner.\n\nFilms must be ordered, veternarians must examine the horse and, if need be, segregate the horse after a shot of lasix  has been administered. No visitors allowed in the backstretch, expecially near the horses readying to race. Security is tight. The groom and the hot-walker are usually the same person, so as to have the horse be in familiar hands when not racing. \n\nHorses are very sensitive to colic and must be well rested and not "blowing" hard after the race before they can drink or eat. Most trainers will not allow any visitors in the barn who are not specifically authorized, before or after any race to prevent the horse from becoming excited and injure himself in the stall. Visitors can excite the horses or give him treats which may comprimise any additive or medication given the horse.\n\nKentucky Derby day is very hectic and everybody wants to win as to bring in maximum amount of revenue for breeding purposes. Most kentucky Derby winners will start at $100,000 to cover a broodmare, once the horse has been retired. So, with 50-75 owners of broodmares ready to have their broodmares impregnated with the male sperm of the winner of the Kentucky Derby, multiply that income each year for twenty years. The income to the owner of a Kentucky Derby can be substantial over the years. Those figures are in place every year and skyrocket to $300,00-$500,000 if the winner of the Kentucky Derby produces a young colt who also wins the Kentucky Derby. \n\nOnce a horse enters the breeding shed he no longer races. It has been tried, to bring horses back into racing, but the horses are usually older and don't fair well once retired and returned to the track.\n\nIn essence, to have a horse even race in the Kentucky can be very lucrative for the owner, even if the horse comes last!...All in all, the security surounding the horses, any horse race is tight, to prevent the horse from injuring himself, other horses and the jockeys from a spill during the race. Not good for the horse/jockey and BAAAAD public relations for the track and the industry as a whole...\n\nTo get the pedigree of a racehorse, you need to obtain the letters and numbers tattoed on the inside of the upper lip. Sometimes it is very difficult to see the number. Use a high digital camera, 4 MP or larger, cover the horses eyes so as not to frieghten the horse, and take a flash-photo, once the upper lip is rolled back. Enhance that photo of the inside of the horses lip, where the number is located, onto a computer screen and retrieve it. Check with any equine veternarian within your state, as to how to check the pedigree once you have retrieved the number.\n\nAt the sales/auctions the pedigree is listed in the catologue that is given out for free at the entrance to anyone who is interested, as sometimes, horses may not have a tattoo because they may never have raced or are too young, yearling. But, most racehorses are tattooed early in life. It is very difficult to retrieve any information, pedigree/race record/injuries/etc., without that tattoo, on the inside of the upper lip, especially in older horses, unless papers are offered at the time of purchase. Certain features may depict a type of pedigree, i.e., large head may indicate a Bold Ruler progeny, but, it is strictly a good guess at best. That tattoo on the inside of the upper lip is the best way to find out about a horses pedigree and racing history...\n\n\nI hope I have answered your question and thank you very much for your r

A. P. Warrior\n\n\nJockey Corey Nakatani was only riding A. P. Warrior for the second time in the Santa Anita Derby (G1), but it's obvious he has a lot of faith in the horse. \n"I thought he ran a really good race," Nakatani said after the Santa Anita Derby, "but I think he is better than that. The track today, for some reason, was very heavy, and I think these horses are going to get a lot out of this race because they went up against Brother Derek. What more can you say? He ran a great race, that horse. I thought we had a real good chance of beating him today, but going to the far turn, he kind of hopped and did something funky. I just don't think he particularly liked how heavy the track was." \n\nNakatani's belief in the horse came well before he rode him in a race. When owner Stan Fulton decided to move the colt from the barn of Eoin Harty to John Shirreffs prior to a winning effort in the San Felipe Stakes (G2), Nakatani was on the phone. \n\n"I had been on him in the morning, and he worked unbelievable for me," Nakatani explained. "He showed me then that he was a better horse than what he had been doing in the afternoon. I've been trying to get on him a long time, ever since I realized that Patrick Valenzuela wasn't going to ride him back last fall. I gave the connections a phone call and tried to get on him at that point, but they went through their channels. I finally was able to get on him when John Shirreffs got him, and, like I said, he worked unbelievable for me."\n\n\n \nBenoit & Associates Photo \n \nPedigree\nDark bay or brown colt by A.P. Indy—Warrior Queen, by Quiet American\n\nFoaled\nFebruary 20, 2003\n\nPurchase Information\nConsigned to September 2004 Keeneland yearling sale by Eaton Sales, agent. Purchased by Fleetwood/NW Management for $1.3-million.\n\nNotes\nFirst start was on July 17 when he won a 5 1/2-furlong MSW at Hollywood Park. To date his maximum winning distance is 1 1/16 miles. \n\nA. P. Warrior had been something of a challenge for his previous trainer, Eoin Harty. He was a nervous two-year-old who could be unruly in the post parade. He had to be scratched from the Best Pal Stakes (G2) on August 14 at Del Mar after unseating jockey Garrett Gomez and running off. Harty felt the turning point came in an allowance race on November 4 at Oak Tree at Santa Anita Park, which A. P. Warrior won by four lengths. "The first thing you teach a horse is how to break well from the gate," Harty said, "so it's hard to get two-year-olds to back off. But last time, he was able to turn it off and then turn it back on. I was confident that once he got behind a horse he'd learn to relax, and it was nice to see him do it. \n\n"I can't predict he'll go a mile-and-a-quarter," Harty added. "But the way he moves is indicative of a horse who can get a distance of ground."\n\nIn Quotation Marks\nTrainer John Shirreffs, after A. P. Warrior won the San Felipe in his first start for Shirreffs: \n\n"He's a classy horse. He is a very, very classy horse. We just didn't want to interfere with him [when asked about race strategy], just let him run his race."

Arctic Blue won at 200-1 at Chepstow Racecourse on 23rd March 2005.\n\nThe Tote Win bet paid out a miserable £79.10 for a £1 bet, but the Exacta (first two horses in the correct order) paid £2,799.90 for a £1 bet!  \n\nNice if you can get it.

The $5 million bonus was a one-shot deal for Oaklawn's 100th anniversary 2 years ago.  Smarty Jones won it by winning the Rebel Stakes, the Arkansas Derby, and the Kentucky Derby.  Smarty would have won another $5 million if he won the Belmont Stakes, making him the richest North American thoroughbred horse of all-time, passing Cigar, at $9.9 million.

I just love Derby trivia. Ok the first was Regret in 1915, then Genuine Risk in 1980, and finally Winning Colors in 1988. I worked on the farm where Colors is now a broodmare, and just so you know she is one of the hatefullest mares to ever live. This is common opinion by the way. Just an interesting tidbit about her, she was in foal to Unbridled in 2001, the foal would have been the first to have Derby winners as both dam and sire, but unfortunately she aborted due to MRLS and as yet she has not been bred to another of the Derby winners standing stud.
