  • What it was like in the Crowd at the 2022 Kentucky Derby - Rich Strike Wins!
    Less than 48 hours before the Derby, the #20 horse, Ethereal Road, scratched. This allowed #21 Rich Strike to enter the race. Rich Strike was not even supposed to be in the race. His odds of winning at the time the race started were 80-1. He wasn't on anyone's radar.

    I was looking for the jockey and I found jockey #21 way far in the back of the pack. I say he analyzed his strategy from the back and his skill and technique were so superb it was Magnificient on his superb judgment how he found himself and the horse up in front was so unbelievable I thought I was dreaming when I said, well my, my I have just seen jockey #21 far in the back of the pack. I was stunned to disbelief. He said once he got upfront he was like a nose ahead he said to himself "I think I got this derby", and again he said, "I think I got this derby".🙏🙏🏇🐴🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

    Native Louisvillian here. My grandfather attended 55 straight Derbies. He bought stock in the Jockey Club, which became Churchill Downs before WWI. His father-in-law was offered the Presidency of Churchill Downs in the early 1920s and turned it down. At one time my extended family had 14 boxes. Not anymore. The last we lost was on the finish line 3 rows back, the space now part of the Stretch Bar Club. We have made considerable money from owning Churchill Downs stock, but we can't afford to go now. Most Louisvillians not entertaining out of town clients stay home these days. I haven't been since 1975.

    This was the most exciting horse race I have ever seen, on tv, live or in the past. This was a clean even handed race. Does anyone find it ironic that suspended Bob Baffert who was not allowed at Churchill Downs. Bob usually has his best horses block other riders and his best horse given the best opportunity for the win.
    Bob Baffert has 6 Kentucky Derby wins, unreal ??!! Watch interview after California Chrome in Kentucky Derby.

      @dwaynecoy1871 2 года назад

      @Elizabeth Bergman - thanks captain obvious. That stuff goes on all the time. What does it have to do with the crazy idea that Baffert was winning the Derby by employing a strategy of having his horses run interference and it gave an edge to his favorite? Then claiming it was a better race because Baffert wasn't there and his strategy wasn't in place? Besides, of his six wins, most of the time Baffert only had one horse in the race.

    I was an Uber driver during Derby week. It was so much fun meeting the vast variety of fans attending, everyone from those coming in on private planes to those who wanted to party in the infield. People were very generous and all were gracious. I actually told one fan to throw a $10.00 bet on the long shot (didn't even know the horses name) because you just never know. I was thinking of Mine That Bird victory who overcame long odds, though not 80-1. I don't know if she did or not but if she did, then that will have gotten me at least one vote for Uber driver of the year.

What a great story. What a great call-the guy was screaming / laughing / crying; the best combination for the audience. The family and trainers humble, appreciative, and just as surprised as everyone else. People you would be glad to call your friends. Sometimes you need a story that restores your faith in the world and this was definitely one for me.

    that was an amazing ride, first he has to pass three horses abreast on the outside, well first he has to move from the outside gate to the inside, then pass them, then he gets stuck behind a rail horse and jerks to the right and passes and then he is on fire, he might not be the fastest horses in derby history, but he was faster than any horse there on that day, and raced farther than any other horse, being on the outside and forced to pass on the outside twice then move to the rail for the win, what a horse, what a jockey.

    The roaring 20's called... they want their hats back. Or maybe they're back. Nice work Rich Strike!

    No one told Rich Strike he was bought for chump change. He just knew he didn't want those other horses in front of him. He didn't care how much they were worth. He was tired of having dirt kicked in his face. And now he will go down as one of the greatest Kentucky Derby wins in history. I love how much trust he has in his groomer. Settled right down as soon as he saw him. And that jockey! Drove Rich Strike like a race car. What an amazing story.

    You can play a game of "Longshot Where's Waldo" with the finish and look for the one person in the crowd jumping up and down that apparently hit the long shot.

    great rider long live Venezuela what pride, he was simply born for this moment, worthy of a movie, against all odds with a great talent! great Sonny God bless you always with health. In all honesty, this might be the greatest Kentucky Derby victory of all time. The longest shot passes the favorite right at the end. You can’t write a story better than that.

    If my wife was still alive she would have put $2.00 on that horse to show. It would have paid about $2.15 back to her.You would have thought she won a million bucks. She loved Del Mar.

    I've seen this happen 3 times in my horse racing handicapping career when i was actually at the track. One time the horse was scratched very late and the replacement was late to the gate, he came trotting in from off the track and after all the horses were in the gates was allowed to get in the gate. The gates opened up seconds later and he sprinted to the front, winning wire to wire! Talk about a fix! Everyone was pissed and knew we all got screwed. Somebody made a ton of money that day. My point is, whenever you see what happened with Rich Strike again somewhere - run to the window and drop whatever you can on the horse!

      @@navigator487 Yes. But even if you remove the betting from the equation, no one could have imagined this. I bet most people did not even know who the horse was, or even cared.

    The funny thing is that a LOT of people thought it was the #2 horse (HAppy JAck) that won because the saddle cloth had to be "jerry rigged" with a 2 attached to a 1 because there has NEVER been a #21 horse in the field.
