Huge congrats to the Grants and Kellys... Just great.
I wonder what the record is for number of years between winning the same graded race?!

I was thinking the same thing. I'm sure someone out there knows this obscure fact. If he didn't set the record today for that, I would have to think he is in the top 2 or 3. My guess would be he stands alone here. You don't see a heckuva lot of grades stakes horses even running 6 years let alone winning the same race 6 years apart.

I was at a basketball tourney for most of the day, but they were loading in the gate when I got home. I didn't have a dime invested, but my buddies and I were cheering for him. That was pretty exciting!!
