Kentucky Derby 2009 - Churchill Downs #135

[sgissweet845]

I bet on Mine That Bird! I am a long shot lover...favorites never do it for me. Well, usually...

[blujean13]

Chantel sutherland must have been so mad that she didnt have the chance to ride mine that bird =[

[TXRider]

I'll NEVER forget that race call.

[ccraw87]

Mine That Bird proved he was for real in the Preakness a little less traffic and we may be looking at the next Triple Crown winner he ought to romp in the preakness the extra length should be a distinct advantage for this horse and it doesnt matter if calvin borel mike smith or an apache indian chief ride him the horse is good and should be remembered as an extremely talented horse if the preakness was the same length or a little longer than the derby he would have caught rachael alexandra

[ThoroughbredGirl96]

Didnt he win by the largest length since Barbaro?? Didnt barbaro win the derby by 6?

[MyBigRed94]

That was an AWESOME Derby !! Congratulations to Borail & Mine that Bird :) The Preakness will be quite interesting. I can't wait !! Oh, by the way, Tom Durkin used to call the races for Hialeah years ago, before Brunetti closed the Track in 2001. Please RE-OPEN Hialeah, for Thoroughbred Racing.

[Barbaro2012]

Seriously? Wow you WANT a horse to die??

[randomglen]

maybe the best derby race ever with maybe the worst announcing ever, that guy is unintelligible

[lukedull]

that's tom durkin and he's a legendary announcer. you wouldn't have known that that was mine that bird either. 50 -1...he probably wasn't even on the first page of his list of runners.

[rashiq501]

Holy crap that horse was flying O.o

[comphug]

that was an amazing race....i seen the ending on tv and was like got damn that horse is moving...i love horse races but not what they do to em when they loose alot though :*( * * * * *

[catherineyronwode]

I agree with whoever noticed how awful the announcing was. He called the horse "Summer Bird" and then later, wen MTB took the lead, he yeled "Pioneer of the Nile" -- while MTB was moving ahead of the pack and then, with MTB a clear winner, he said "is ... uh... Mine That Bird" and then called the win "impossible." It reminded me of Simon Cowell and Susan Boyl! LOL! I agree, also with whoever said that MTB may like sloppy tracks -- whatever, though, he was FLYING at the end.

[Janosita]

The best horse of the day won, - but maybe MTB just loves mud.

[dcjack826]

what awful announcing... seriously.

[queenquadessa]

this was the best derby i ever seen!

[TheRealDeal97]

gtfo?

[curlybab]

I used to want to be a jockey, but then everyone told me I couldn't, but seeing a race like that...wow, just gets me going, I was screaming and yelling when Mine That Bird was coming down the stretch, everyone I was with just kind of looked at me and walked away...yeah, I'm a horse racing- wanna be- geek. But I love it!

[asommer14]

wow..good race..

[marcruz36]

somebody mentioned this horse to me thursday i went saturday and bet 50 bucks to win wish i bet more

[XxIrishxX4ever]

[majesticnighthawk21]

he didn't mention mine that bird until he was 10 metres ahead of everyone

[worshipHim4]

[LetArtsLive]

I live in Batavia NY we have the downs.I have watched people bet their life away on the favorites.Isn't it funny how the favorites rarely win?

[Prab29]

Really impressive the crowning of this copy, in the 700 final meters nobody would be able to believe that would be the winner and in a way so impressive

[TwilightCowgirl]

Thank you SO much for posting so fast! I couldn't find the channel, so I didn't watch it. :C So strange that a horse with such low odds won, congrats to his jockey and proud owners! ^_^

[SMP0328]

A 50-1 shot wins the Kentucky Derby = Goodbye Triple Crown.

[soulfire0269]

What a race! 50 to 1 crazy odds for a horse that finshed like the odds on fav.

[jdun722]

thanks for posting so fast :)

[stwilegar]

That was one of the worst commentator call outs I've ever witnessed. He didn't even see the bird until damn near the finish. Just horrible commentating....horrible.

[OneInnocentBystander]

Yup. Had to look at his cheat sheet when he suddenly noticed that somebody had passed his "trio" by 3 lengths.

[ashlau414n]

woohooo! mine that bird is beast! :D

[bigswallow2]

Thanks Andux for posting this great horse race so quickly! The first time I saw it, I could not believe it! Mine That Bird Rules (Tweet Tweet!)
