There are 3 major horse race events in USA each year which combine to determine which horse is the "Triple Crown Winner".  The first race is the Kentucky Derby ran yesterday afternoon (2 weeks away is the Preakness (check spelling), to be followed by the Belmont Stake).

The best horse crossed the line first but disqualified after an objection after a 20' long review and discussion by the Race Stewards.  The horse which came in second, and was never impeded, was then promoted to be the winner.

What an exciting horse race!

From inexperienced eyes, we can hardly see the impedement; but as one Race Commentator put it correctly, "don't look at the jockey, look at the feet of the horse.", then it became very clear.  The horse being disqualified impeded other horses TWICE.

(I watched the video more than 5 times in order to pick up the infringement!)

The Stewards had to make a hard decision which required objectivity, integrety, and courage!  

The Stewards deserved a lot more praise than the winning horse!

I had not followed this race yesterday, I just read the result to know Country House won the race, and the surprising high payout of $3,009.70 for a $2 exacta bet. Thank you for your information.
By the way, do you bet the races held everyday in the States? I do.

I like horses and appreciate horse racing, but I don't bet on horse races.

I have a fantasy of fucking a female jockey who could squeeze me tightly with her legs while going up and down just like riding a horse!

Preakness Stakes, which is the 2nd leg of the annual Triple Crown horse racing event will be held this afternoon.

There will be live TV coverage from 1700 to 1900; check your local listings.  The actual horse racing lasts just over 1', the rest is just pre-race chit-chat/blow water, and post race interviews.

I have previous engagement and cannot watch, hopefully the race will be re-played later in the evening.

Strange things happened at this year's Preakness!

A jockey was thrown from his horse at the starting gate.  While the jockey sat on the ground in frustration, his horse ran around the track with other horses and completed the couse.  The jockey DNF, his horse did!

Here is the jockey-less horse's race:

You are chipping in with nothing new on an event which had finished in May 2019!
