Barbaro Maiden Win

[velcho1969]

The way Barbaro moved with speed and grace after passing by those other riders, it made the hair on my body stand up! He runs like the wind... I've never been a huge fan of horse racing, but Barbaro had caught my eye... Poor him, R.I.P. Barbaro.

i like it when the announcer says BARBARO IS PUTTING ON A SHOW HERE :)

[c1605]

cruise control

[101020sarah]

wow his legs were moving like the wind lol R.I.P barbaro miss ya : )

[paradoxicus]

Es emocionante ver como Barbaro,domina la carrera con total autoridad.

Al margen de su epica historia creo que esta entre los mejores de la historia del turf.Sin su lesion,hubiera ganado muy psiblemente la "Triple Corona",americana y eso solo esta al alcance de muy pocos.

Por cierto ¿La gano SECRETARIAT?.

[lengua92]

@paradoxicus Secretariat la ganó rompiendo los records de tiempo de cada una de las tres carreras.

[youdovoodoo2]

my heart just squeezes when I see him run, I wish he could have made it past his injuries.

[RunOnBarbaro]

Go Barbaro !! Love you always

[Sexxii98]

4 years :( seems like so long, it breaks my heart to know we'll never see him race again </3

[SweetestCinBabe]

That's cause hes a great horse!! Always will be!!! I miss him!

[keybender]

Looks like a really nice horse this Bar-Bear-Oh, any relation to Barbaro - lol. Didn't know he made his debut on grass, maybe he should have kept running on turf, though he was a great horse on dirt as well.

[Zenyattaisqueen]

Reminding us how spectacular his power kick was. Sure do miss him. Why do I do this to myself?!

[helpfoals]

Four years ago today he made his mark for the first time on the track. RIP Barbaro... we miss you...always.

[WOOKSTER8]

Four Years Ago today, He made his debut, Where does the time go?, Miss this Great Champion....

[PonyRider4ever]

Barbaro. Wow. Just let go, and no one had a chance. Chilling. Chilling.

[iWaterbender]

lol, the announcer did NOT say Barbaro's name right. XD

What an effort made by Barbaro!!! I miss him terribly. Honestly, I really thought he could of been the one to sweep the Triple Crown. (:

[SweetestCinBabe]

No he didn't..he needed to get his name right LOL

[TurboTwistedFire]

"This could be a great one"

Those words are chilling to me now.

[RayGordon888]

I had the exacta in this race. Matz is an automatic bet with first time on the grass.

[jdman270]

man i wish someone had told that announcer how to day Barbaro lol One of my favorite horses ever

[truchamps4life]

how much did he win by?

[sainglain]

Would that be Orange Juice ?

[OriginalChosen1]

He had to be on the juice.

[BarbaroFan08]

I've never seen a horse running like Barbaro. I miss him so. He was great. I can't read the book, because I just speak German and a little English. For the book my English isn't good enough.

[nicky441x]

did you see how he gained speed at the end?!

[jljarubas]

I love Barbaro!

[MachoUno75]

I was there that day....

[RidingWithRuffian]

Eight letters:

C-H-A-M-P-I-O-N!!!

I really miss him.....

But look at the legacy he left!!

He is truly America's horse =]=]

[ThoroughbredGirl96]

I was reading the book My Guy Barbaro by Edgar Prado and he said he rode Barbaro on the turf and he said it was like Barbaro was flying when they turned for home. And he also said Barbaro won by some lengths, and Edgar Prado didn't even touch him with the whip.

[dapplegray98]

yes he is a champion

[dapplegray98]

barbaro! bar bar ro

[rickker20]

look at the way barbaro ran he ran different then the rest of the horse.

[OelendraX]

Barbaro always kicked up his front legs, he kinda skipped instead of galloped through his races.

[sainglain]

you mean he had "knee action" - skipping lol

[yaysmokey15]

the anouncer has no enthusiasim... :P

[horses2ride]

Though barbaro isn't alive, his still happy. I know it. He's in a better place now.

[mingorules1]

first race, first performance, first winner, first known, first champion. bless barbaro!

[thespa77]

Barbaro, I miss you so. RIP dear one.

[nshtt]

[ashorney1]

[sharpie311]

[barbaro4ever8]

just think then and there, nobody knew how special he would become...

RIP Barbaro i miss u so much

[balarat84]

wow he was just a baby then --grt horse

[PrinceOfPersia623]

Pronounce it right stupid!

[sugarpuppy137]

Announcers often mispronounce horses names when they first run in their maidens, it doesn't make them stupid.

[spade1008]

boy that horse could fly i miss him alot. I think the announcer didnt know how to pronounce his name right

[barbaro4ever8]

Gosh I miss him so much.... What a beauty

But why did they pronounce his name.. Bar-Bare-O?

[horsecrazy11]

they didnt know how to pronounce it then

[cf1970]

Thanks so much for posting this race. Barbaro was such a classy horse. He ran like the wind. RIP beautiful boy. God bless.

[livingforhorses]

damn that poor thing, he had some special talent..

[TXRider]

What a romp! He seemed to fade a little, but he came back strong!!! Wonderful colt...gonna miss him.

His name was 'mispronounced' in the Laurel too--I think it can be either way.

[Dawnpaw]

The anouncer person pronounced his name wrong...

[seggymon]

wow...

he was always something special.
