Goose bumps. That was AWESOME.

holy ****

I think Zenyatta just dropped to number two

That was pretty awesome. You know what would've been awesomer? If Durkin knew her phucking name. "A TOUR DE FORCE FROM RACHEL ALEXANDER!!!"

I have to tell you, that was a real honor to behold. Congratulations Hal and Calvin, you old salts.

I think Durkin was so excited he got tongue-tied. He was going nuts.

Nah, he was calling her that all down the backstretch. It's not that difficult.

They should have you call the race next time.

She obviously ran an incredible race, but let's not go too crazy about the length she won by vs. that field. . .

Blah Blah. Wasnt her fault that she ran with these group. Even so it was a weak filed, winning by 20 lengths in any race, in hand is not easy to do.

GFY. Apparently you think it's too much to ask that an announcer know the name of a 20+ length winner of the Kentucky Oaks.

Appropriately Bravo! is airing Top Gun afterwards. :D

A couple time he called her "Alexander" a couple times "Alexandra"...that's worse than getting it wrong everytime. How hard is her name to pronounce?????? I have heard "Alexander" for her from many announcers, fans, and commentators. Geeeze

I'm pretty excited about that.

Wiggins has got to be kicking himself. The Oaks is a nice race to win but he'll never have a better shot to win the Derby than he would have had with her. She never ran a damn step today. Never ran a step. I have no doubt that she is the best 3yo in the country and would have won the Derby. I was so so so so so wrong. Stardom Bound can't touch this horse. Last year, I wanted to see Zenyatta in the Classic. If Shirreffs wants to win another BC race with her this year, he better run in the Classic.

That was unbelievable. I think we all knew she would win but by 25 lengths?

I'm glad nobody told Winning Colors or Funny Cide the Triple Crown series is supposed to be a showcase for stallions.

Like I said you should call the race next time. The owners of Rachel Alexandra will support your bid for it.

I could care less if he called her Rachel Alexander or Alexandera and 99.9% would agree with me. A-holes like yourself want to criticize and knock people for a stupid reason

It was a passing comment. You're the one who's drawing this out. Quick, mention something about some random horse so you can pull up this thread in six months.
