There's a horse with my last name in the Preakness today!
Imagine my wife's surprise when one of her coworkers informed her of this fact!

7. My sentiments, exactly.
Bernardini is a great horse. What a race.

But I'm heartsick about Barbaro, first too early out of the gate
and then a "significant" hind leg injury. That's very serious.

I'm praying that he's going to be OK
