It was a race for the ages, and I'm sure somewhere in Hollywood the rights to the movie are being negotiated. I saw it in televised real-time, but I would line up to buy a ticket to re-live the experience one more time. It was that good. Mine That Bird, The 135th Kentucky Derby winner, scored one for the underdogs of the world.
There were bigger horses with better odds, but Mine That Bird proved you do not have to be a favorite to win big. The little gelding crossed the finish line first, but midway through the race he was dead last. It was the most astonishing and inspiring Kentucky Derby I've seen in years, maybe the best ever.
Mine That Bird and his jockey, Calvin Borel, gave the world a two-minute lesson on suiting up for the race, no matter what the odds, the conditions or the competition. Give it, whatever your it may be, your best shot and you may find yourself in the winner's circle exclaiming, "What a great ride."
That's what it's all about.
