Swap Fliparoo won the Test and she was not 10/1. Actually 5/1.
I bet Win McCool that day and he stumbled at the gate, never having a chance.

In the Whitney, I bet Wanderin Boy and I remember cursing after the race that I bet the wrong Zito horse. I really thought Sun King won the race from where I was sitting that day.

We were right at the wire for that race and it was definitely one of the most thrilling of the year. I was bouncing up and down...thought for sure Sun King was going to do it! Sun King is a very exciting horse when he is gunning for the wire, I love the way he moves.

After the race, I got Bejarano & Jara to sign my program, I can't wait to frame it with the photo.

At the 1/16th pole I thought Sun King was going to win by a length. Even after the race I still thought he got the outside bob. I was furious because so many times it happens I bet a horse whose trainer has another one entered (uncoupled) and the wrong one wins.
