It was crazy out there today. I believe in the 7th race we couldn't even see the gate on the tv. Durkin went off the sound of the bell. "And they're off, i guess"...And with beutiful strides down the backstretch" was another one of his sayings. He was definately having a fun time with it..

You know it's a slow day in racing when the biggest headline on Blood-Horse.com is about his win.

That was some call by Durkin.

Probably the best one he's had in years.

but since half the price was going back to the guy who bought him, didn't they really buy him for 3 million?
