I can't believe

-Denis of Cork survived that hellacious fall in the post-parade. Surprised the vet let him run after a horizontal fall like that.

-Colonel John's diagonal move in the stretch was not some sort of foul. He really came out in front of that horse.

-After his dismal effort in the Lexington, shocked Tomcito got in. Must have been the shoes.

Very funny video. Good for the kid to get so excited.

yeah, I agree. I wonder if the kid is related to someone in the business. (or a serious horse player).. he knew a lot of terms you wouldn't expect someone his age to know (I have no idea how old the kid is, just guessing he's 10 or so)

Hes dreaming if he thinks Pyro is going to be favored over Big Brown. Who can blame him though? He obviously is planning to make a big play on Big Brown and wants the best price possible.
Whats up with including Tomcito and not Bob Black Jack? LOL!

When I was growing-up, I used to "play" horse racing all the time. If only you could have seen some of the stuff I did. But, its what turned me on to race calling and here I am.

Who would of thought that speed would hold on marble! The kid has a real future, he is already better that Battaglia.

I'm laughing, A LOT...

I think Colonel John would have nailed him at the wire if he didn't have to check hard in the stretch behind the tiring Tale of Ekati...

I also didn't realize Stauffer was calling the Derby this year...

Funniest thing is that I use to do the same thing when I was his age.

It's funnier the more you watch it. You pick up little things.

But man, that Tomcito stuff is really good.

Yeah my gf is asking me why I keep watching it, so I made her watch it and she didn't see the humor in at as she is not a big horse racing fan. I think the way he emphasizes certain words is what makes it funny to me, and the flying dismount at the end.

none the less good ****, I'm going to comment on the video and say I know a bunch of people who like it and would also like a Preakness and Belmont Stakes preview.
