- Rachel Alexandra, with Calvin Borel aboard, won the 134th running of the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Track in Baltimore, Maryland, with Kentucky Derby winner Mine That Bird finishing second. Mr. Borel rode MTB to the Derby win two weeks earlier. Rachel became the first filly to win the Preakness since 1924. The race was run on May 16, 2009.

11 Years later and this girl still gives me goosebumps. Wish I could go back
True
Rachel's races here and in the Woodward were absolutely nuts, the only front-runner to hang around in paces that hampered anyone else who was close.
Omg i'm so... so happy.
She's definitively an amazing filly!
And Mine That Bird second! I love this horse! He's amazing too.
If Mind that Bird would have had a little more track he would have won. He was amazing again coming from way back again. Will always be his fan. 👍😍🐎
NOPE he wasnt going to catch RA.
That's false. The only way that stands true, is when the gate opened, the horses all sprinted as fast and as far as they could until one hit the finish line first. What you just said is what most newbies to the sport say. Here's the reality: If the race was longer, Rachel Alexandra's jockey wouldn't have asked her to run until later in the race.
such a big fan that you dont know the horses name is MINE that bird.
Rachel wouldn't never of lost people who don't know what they're talking about .
I just started crying. Damm that girl did it to me again.
Rachel's picture is on my wall of Fame right next to Secretariat and Man 'O War
What a fine filly! Calvin is so cool.
Txs for posting this video. : )
Could very well be the best filly I ever seen!!!!!!!
I assume you didn't see either Ruffian or Personal Ensign. Both were better than RA who was just as good as Zenyatta.
@@jaysantos536 yeah you assumed right I wasn't watching horse racing back in them days, Rachel Alexander maybe she is not the best but she's one of the best that I've ever seen
@@jaysantos536 Only a retard would act like "for sure on those horses was better than the others". It's so close, they are all in discussion, and each has points that you can point to where you could say they are better than the others.
For some reason the video quality is much much better here than the other preakness 2009 videos that were posted. It's easier to see the horses.
My brother recorded it using a small camera. What is the kicker is for the Derby, I had a copyright thing on it so I can't monetize it, but the outfit which did it, Churchill Downs, actually stole OUR recording of it. If it had been NBC/Universal, I would have understood, but this was ludicrous.
Jerry Bailey on mine that bird would be a whole different ending
she was called "super filly" for a good reason.
If Mind that bird gets a better ride, he wins this race.
Not necessarily.
Trying to remember if any other jockey ever won Oaks/Derby/Preakness in the same year?
Her and Zenyatta could beat the boys no problem!!!! Female legends
Don't forget Winning Colors. She beat the boys in the derby. But I am in no way sexist, most best horses are female, they don't have balls flopping around to slow them.
@@joeshmoe781 what an assinine comment.
Track announcer: Tom Durkin
Why is it always Johnny Velasquez who gets bucked off.😂😂
Great Calvin Bo rel.......
Calvin wata Rider♥️
My one 'wish this would a happened'......
Rachel ran the Derby instead of the Oaks.
You were fast. : ) What a great race it was. Now, on to Belmont!
Speed Kills
Calvin!
Runs like her Daddy
If she sits third and makes one big move...she wins the belmont....stunning horse!
Girl power
She was amazing 😉
I prefer her to Zen bc she's a more versatile filly (my east coast bias notwithstanding) - Rach was dangerous from anywhere on the track, yes, she prefered front/just off the pace, but she had more than one move whereas Zenny was a strict closer, not always, but she ran best from way out of it. Mile 1/8 to mile and qtr, Rach takes it down.
Rachel Alexandra was the greatest filly of all time on dirt. And Zenyatta was the best mare on dirt. I’ve never seen better than those two. They would have won against each other on different days and different distances. We should all be thankful to have witnessed such greatness and in the same year at that!
@@silvereyedstacker1842 I saw RUFFIAN and she was the fastest thing since Dr. Fager.. enough for me.
@@bishlap Rachel Alexander was faster than Ruffian.
13/1? wow
some people don't understand ,, if she didn't get 5 lbs. she probably does not win
I doubt that makes as much difference as some people seem to think
Great front running by the filly! Mine the Bird left the final burst too late. If it was the Kentucky Derby distance he would have won.
too many horses in the field, Mine that Bird forced way out, probably ran an extra furlong than RA ran
Too bad she was afraid to take on Zenyatta, so John sent her stablemate to school all you biased NY'ers. She got her ass whipped but good in that race. But still she was voted hoy, ha.
In 2009, Rachel was superior to Zenyatta. Her times, her margins of victories, her speed figures were better. And she won more Grade 1's vs colts.
Yeah, another 1/16 eh, maybe Mike Smith thought it was 10 furlongs, same as the derby because he doesn't usually ride back east or maybe the trainer told him the wrong distance or maybe RA's connections sneaked out the night before the race and moved the posts and finish line. Maybe MTB should get some sort of consolation TC because he won the gallop out after the finish,
OR maybe if Big Drama doesn't push RA to a 46 3/5 half and she gets to go 47 4/5 or 48 MTB gets beat 5 lengths.
Terrible jockeying on mind that bird started to late
Hey, Rachel Lovers: can you deny that she DUCKED Zenyatta?????
Ducked several times
Rachel would've beat zenyatta
Wow.. after all these years the same few troll accounts are still going on about them not racing together. Just as bad as the Easy Goer vs Sunday Silence die hard cult.
Why would someone be a Rachel lover vs Zenyatta lover other than if you were part owner? It's an animal you NOTHING to do with.
She didn't duck anything. He owners maybe just a bit.😊
