Calvin Borel and Super Saver won the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, even though the track was sloppy due to rain.
Borel becomes the first jockey to win three derby’s in four years.
Borel is a 43-year-old that they call the “Cajun Kid”.
I had Borel winning because of his rail to rail racing style and Todd Pletcher was the trainer, which is in the top 3 horse racing trainers in the world.
In my opinion he is one of the best riders and Kentucky derby rides that the racing world has ever seen.
In my mind, it is all about the jockey in a race like this because the horses are all similar in physicality, but Borel is one of the bests in the world of racing.
Although, Horse Racing is not exactly a sport, I’m doing a blog post because millions made bets on saturday and over 150,000 showed up at Churchill Downs.
congratulations to Borel, Pletcher, and the people who bet on Super Saver and won.
