Nicklaus, Shoemaker, Scully, Even Dodgers, Have Made Us Young
I’ve seen a lot of horse races in my time. I’ve seen a lot of horses come from dead last to win their race. But, I have never seen a better ride than Bill Shoemaker gave Ferdinand in the Kentucky Derby. Well done, Shoe. I thank you for a very exciting two minutes (and change) and I’m sure that Charlie Whittingham thanks you, too!
