In a performance reminiscent of his winning ride aboard Street Sense two years earlier, Calvin Borel hugged the rail throughout then exploded through the stretch to guide Mine That Bird to an improbable 6 3/4-length victory over Pioneerof the Nile in the 135th running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs. The victory capped off a memorable weekend for Borel, who also rode Rachel Alexandra to a one-sided triumph in Friday's Kentucky Oaks. (Source DRF)

what about the preakness running down rachael if the race was 10 more feet or maybe musketman and almost won the belmont also. I think the bird would have won the preakness if borel was on him. Smith rod the bird that race and said him self after the race he should have asked for something earlier. He is a fantastic race horse with super blood lines but correct this is by far the toughest race he has ever lined up with. I like him summerbird, and einstein also good luck to you all
Amazing horse with a hell of a heart for racing. When asked that horse would fly to heaven if it were possible. He loves to run and will definately make it into the record/history books.
You don't know anything about horse racing do you??? There is a reason he was 50-1, and one race doesn't mean he is a great horse. He will be in the Kentucky Derby record books, but not even close to mentioned as one of the top horses of all time. It was a GREAT ride by Calvin Borel. Extremely risky and perfectly timed. Sorry, but his 15 minutes of fame is over :(
