This was the first year I really got into the Derby trail. I liked Proud Appeal and Bold Ego, neither of whom did much. Woodchopper was a decent closer.

This is a nice piece of footage to go way back like this.

I haven’t seen a Kentucky derby with more than 20 horses they have 21 horses

Battaglia called this one like the 3rd at Ellis Park on a Wednesday. What a horrendous caller he was.

They should have added a few horses. Pretty small field here.

Won this Derby - great horse.
