I mean she just puts away Big Drama, and Goodnight. Calvin's face when he hits the wire was classic. He new Mine that Bird was gonna be right there at the wire, and was pretty relieved. Bird lost that race because the Jockey got Out Raced.
Not a Rachel fan until I just rewatched this race, and I all I have to say is... Heart. If Jess Jackson sends her to Meet up with Curlin , their babies will be of some VERY strong Pedigree. Rachel was a champion, and Deservedly so.
If mine that bird had been able to get through as clean as he did in the Kentucky Derby he would have won this race too... As it was he had to go way outside and was almost able to pull it off. Gutsy little horse.
They need to breed these two. With her size and power and his closing speed. You would have an unbeatable colt that could do it from the front or from the rear.
Calvin made his move just a hair too early, and had too much traffic to manuever through. Those are the cons of late breaking horses though, you take the good with the bad. You don't always get an ideal path along the rail, and it especially wasn't going to happen after the Derby. The rest of the field was ready for it.
This distance of this race was perfect for RA. They didn't enter her in the Derby or the Belmont for a reason.
She wasen't entered in the derby because she had a different owner that didn't believe the girls should run with the boys. She was sold after the derby and thats why she was running with the boys. I met both horses at the preakness. She is beautiful but he is by far the sweetest horse you will ever see. I hope he wins one more time.
What about the Belmont then? That was after she was sold, and they didn't run her in that.
Great horse no doubt, but if they felt she had a chance at that Belmont distance she would have been in the field. I think she may have finished in the money at the Derby though.
yeah, it's called being a filly ... not for nothing is a weight allowance given -- twice over in the Woodward in running against older male horses. That was a fine filed RA just beat in the Woodward, so let's take our hats off and give the lady a bow.
I had a 20.00 tri key on this race...I figured it would pay about 70.00...I almost fell out of my seat at otb... When they put up the price...The tri payed 238.00 AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
Amazing everytime I see this Filly, not just that she is a Filly, but as an incredible racehorse. Male/Female who cares? I like the term Superhorse for her.
Mine that bird can go shit glue out his ass. he didnt win the belmont got third. so everyone who said yeah hes sooo going to win.. no.. you guys have your heads up your ass if you think this ugly little pony can kick any horses ass. theres alot of other horses that can kick that little birdys ass right to the ground.
The majority owner of Rachel Alexander Jess Jackson said she will likely run in the Mother Goose stakes at Belmont Park on the 27th of June. Its still not confirmed, he's just considering it a next possible start for the filly.
Zenyatta runs like Mine That Bird...holds off then BAM!! Turbo Charge!! Too bad Rachel ran in the Preakness...it was great to see her win but we may of had a Triple Crown Winner in Birdie!
The filly is alright. She is a great horse but if you start to choke after going a mile and a half, you definetly can't hang with the big boys. Yes, she won but by one length in the shortest race in triple crown leg. Mine that Bird will win at the Belmont, she isn't even racing it cuz she is "tired"
well jessie74 we will find out on belmont day.. mine that bird gunna go right passed her.. but whu knos maybe a different horse will win.. like dunkirk or quality road.. i just dont think rachel is as good as everyone sais she is... zenyatta is going to get her later this year.
yes.. mine that bird is better than the filly. he had a bad trip and was forced outside and still almost won.. just another 16th of a mile he would have won.. watchout for the belmont.. dunkirk is going to give mine that bird a run.. and so is quality road... i like bird though!! go bird!!
Yeah in watching it again little bird is the fastest horse out there, His problem is he has to run from the back and if he doesnt get a clean ride he is screwed, He just went from worst to almost first again.
They both must run the Belmont that is the only way of knowing for sure.
Calvin Borel keeps claiming that even if he got side by side she would have just found another gear, Well I'm sorry but not from what I watched. Little Bird was coming very hard and would have passed and then walked her down the rest of the track if the race where longer.
He didnt get a good ride, He had 5 more pounds and she barely won by the skin of her ass. He ran out of time thats it, If this was Church Hill Downs she would have been toast if this was Belmont she would have been toast. A poor trip and short track is what won it for her.
And just so you know, the track record at Finger Lakes for the Derby distance is 2:05+ on a fast track. There was a 40,000 N2xAlw at Laurel this past winter that was around 2:06 and 4/5. Gulfstream also had an N3x Alw for mares on the turf that went 2:04. So I'm guessing that 2:02 and 3 in the slop in the Derby against MULTIPLE Grade I winners would indicate a non-claiming horse. You are a moron. Go suck of Chuck Liddell you Corky-ass tardy.
Will, I watched Sunday Silence beat Easy Goer in Baltimore in '89. My family has been involved in racing since the 1950s. Why anyone would say anything about a horse being turned into glue is only indicative of the white trash, mixed martial arts, super-aggressive, closeted homosexual moron that your surely dead Mother shat out of her cavernous quim. Rachel will never run a race longer than a mile and an eighth again. You are a complete retard that knows nothing except talk.
Will, you obviously know nothing. There is 0% chance that filly runs in the Belmont. In fact, there is a 0% chance she'll ever run an inch over a mile and an eighth again. Tactical speed is only good up to 9 furlongs. It's a shame that this rich billionaire bought her for the purpose of preventing a triple crown for a no-name gelding who is obviously far and away the best horse in the world. He'll run the Belmont as fast as Easy Goer did, and it's a shame that he won't get to crush her.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
as fast as Eay Goer not in a 100 tries he could go 2:26 what an idiot you are and you are ignorant about Horse Racing, Iwas there when Easy Goer defeated SS were u ? NO. MTB is a claimer and his 15 minutes are over, RA crushed him she won handily, going away
did you watch the race or was your head in your a ss preventing you from seeing what happened.. RA was getting run down and would have lost if the race was longer. mine that bird lost 3 lengths around the turn when he was bumped hard 3 times and sandwiched by a horse that had no business even being the race. The horse came last in the derby and shouldnt have been in the preakness. your the biggets idiot that ive ever heard.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
No your are just a Simpleton when it comes to Horse racing and you don't have a clue as to what your simple minded fucking brain is alking about. MTB never "got to RA" admit it she kicked the shit out of him it's chumos like you that give racing a good name so go fuck yourself you ignorant cock smoker
MTB is the best horse in the world. His replacement jockey held back too long. if he's in the Belmont, he will win. MTB reminds me of Seabiscuit, a little brown horse with a big heart.
How is that possible?? I am still in disbelief on how that actually happened. Thank God for You Tube because moments like these would never get exposure. haha!
No he wouldn't have won if they went around twice. No way he would have ever caught her. She was toying with him and he couldn't get to her ass much less pass her. If she would have ever seen the plow horse MTB she would have lengthened her stride and went away from this cheap colt. His 15 minutes are over and she WILL be 3 year old horse of the year. She would have beat him 4-5 lengths on KY Derby Day her speed figure in the Oaks was BETTER and she would be easily on her way to TC
She ran under perfect conditions in the Oaks. She also weighs 110 lbs more than him and got a 5 lb weight break because she's a filly. If you think she would have been able to use tactical speed in furlong 10 of the Derby slop against a 950 lb bullet like him then you are absolutely insane? She's a husky chick that'll get retired in three months. No chance she runs the Classic. No chance she runs a race that lasts longer than two minutes. And he'll run for four more years.
i cant wait to see you eat your words when MTB kicks her ass in the Belmont... she could only hold him off by half a length... the others blocked the rail as well... that asshole that ran the filly was just trying to block a triple crown winner, for that he's a detriment to the sport...
next you will say it was a photo finish, he never seriously chllenged her she won by MORE than a length and after the wire he NEVER PASSED HER. You will be eating your words chump. RA draws away at the Belmont, My Horse whipped the shit out of your bottom line your Mule lost and he is ready for the flue factory. You losers and your excuses, MTB a Triple crown winner hahahahahaha never in a million years his 15 minutes are over he is a claimer you know, what a simpleton you are
Boys she started on the outside and had to work her way to the inside. She did it and outran mine that bird who started in a much better position. Give her credit. She outran mine that bird.
Very talented filly and ran a very impressive race. If Mine that Bird didn't have to swing so far to the outside after coming around the final turn, I think he could have beat her though by 1/2 or 1 length. He is an amazing little colt with a huge heart. Looking forward to Belmont and so glad to see no serious injuries so far since the Kentucky Derby, hope it stays that way.
I think Mine That Bird is much the Best. He won the Derby at 50-1 going away! He's a closer! In-experienced trainer! New Jockey for Preakness (would of beat Rachel if he got through cleanly)! In my books; if he goes on to win Belmont, Travers & Breeder's Cup Classic he's as good as any this Generation... SeaBiscuit anyone?
will back bone he would have won at longer distance he took the to R.A. and she never responded she was dead tired at the line she will not run in the belmont race took to much out of her
Absolutely he will probably win the Belmont. He closed incredibly fast from a difficult spot two thirds or so of the race through. He ran incredibly well. The filly is great too. But I worry about injury to her. It's great stress for her to feel the heat of those stallions gaining behind her. Her margin of victory was much less, and I think if Mine that Bird had been able to get thru the pack more easily he would have won going away.
... dont get me wrong, Rachel Alexandra is a incredible, versitale, classy filly.. she was the one to beat.. i bet on her to win and i got the exacta, its just left to see if she makes it to the Belmont
Jess Jackson said if she comes out of this race fine, he might consider the Belmont Stakes.. I think if Mine That Bird and Rachel hook up in the Belmont, Mine That Bird might win.. think about it.. he closed very well after being wide and steadied.. my opinion*
I wonder why she didn't win the Derby... Since Mine that Bird gave such a close race, I wonder also if Borel had ridden Mine that Bird for the Preakness, that he may have won. It was close!
An unbelievable race. Mine that Bird may have caught her with just one more 16th of a mile. I wish the two would have gone against one another in the Derby. An amazing rivalry between two totally different horses.
