Bet Mike Smith feels like killing himself for letting a hole open on the rail.
No trifecta, but I still got the exacta
:winkgrin:
Paynter
sure has some staying power. But put a decent jockey on Union Rags and he shows what he can do. So happy for Michael Matz:D
Nice to have good guys win :lol:

Well, as slow as the pace was he really should have had something left. 
YEAHHHHHHH for the big horse!!!
I am totally stoked, he broke beautifully, was positioned perfectly, and gutted it out through the hole on the rail.
God bless John Velasquez. At the top of the stretch that was a textbook example of how to be patient!
So thrilled! 
Please, Please ASAP
A re-run of the race for all of us who couldn’t get to watch it!!!
Where is the “on-bended-knee” icon!! :lol:
Nice to have good guys win
DAMN STRAIGHT! :lol:
Loved Johhny’s ride, UR wasn’t sure about going through the hole. Looked like if he had too Johnny would have hopped off and carried the horse through the hole himself!
I am SO happy!!!

What a great race and congrats to Michael Matz and all of Union Rags connections - a classic win for a class act team!
Yes!
Did they do a full order of finish? I’m on dial-up so equibase is really slow…NBC cut away like they couldn’t be done fast enough. (I can’t entirely blame them, it’s not like it wasn’t an anticlimax since yesterday, though really they could have had better coverage.)

Happy Birthday! Don’t forget to bet on Johhny V on your 40th!
So happy for Michael Matz and the owner who bought her horse back.
A very thrilling race. Happy for all the connections.
