Even though I felt the field consisted of 19 absolute suspects .. I would have placed the probability of a Mine That Bird win on par with the probability of 15 riders falling off at the gate ... and a 'Street Sense' like daring rail skimming ride by Calvin Borel to beat the remaining non riderless trio of Join in the Dance, Advice, and Atomic Rain in a four way win photo

I asked Maker last fall why Ken ramsey was running a filly by Street Cry out of a Pulpit mare for 15k. Knowing that out of the 200 broodmares that KR owns most are not so commercially bred.

I suppose Accredit eased some of the Temple Street and General Quarters bitterness.
