Giacomo had a terrible start coming out of the gate in the Derby .. and I threw up my hands, swore, and that was finally the point I had given up on him.. thinking everything has to go perfect for his bum ass to win.
I made fun of you all right, but having seen you pull rabbits out of your ass before, I wasn't too serious.

As for the rest of that, everything did go perfect for him, which is why he won.
