So does Calvin get the mount back? Had MTB gone inside could he have caught RA today? If you think so you have to wonder if they want Calvin back...
How the heck was he getting inside today? Is there like a magic word that tells everyone from the 3/8ths to get out of the way?

Thats pretty funny, who knew it was that easy to be a great rider. You have to wonder if thats all it is why Calvin has struggled to be more then a journeyman rider in KY. He is not even the big fish in a small pond with his great style, or "balls" as you put it.

I thought Mike Smith did a great job on Mine That Bird. I know it is hypothetical but had Calvin Borel Rode MTB, could he have beaten RA? No disrespect meant to Mike Smith (because he rode my pick in the Derby, Chocolate Candy well).

No, cause he probably would have stayed on the inside and waited for a hole on the rail that never opened yesterday.
Mike Smith put the horse in a position to win, but he was just beaten by a better horse.
