How wonderful was it to see the familiar cherry red and white silks of Stuart Janney's family silks, the same colors worn by the Great Ruffian years ago.

Orb and Data Link both winning on the same day, same track. Trained by my fav. trainer, good ole Shug, I can see he still does not mess around with all that junk they put on horses faces, Orb uses the same style bridle Ruffian did all those years ago. A regular bridle with a regular bit in the mouth, so you can see what the beautiful horse looks like.

Like John Sheriffs, every horse he runs has shadow rolls on their face. It seems whether they need it or not??!

Go ORB!! Win that Derby for these great folks!
Then again, in that race it will prob. be the 50-1 shot that wins....who knows with that crazy race! LOL

Wishing all a great weekend.
We will NEVER see another Ruffian......
