CA is a little far for me, but I'll be watching from Churchill Downs

I like that - "I don't want to rust out, I want to burn out." Now if only some of Kitten's Joy's offspring were named something other than "Kitten."

One day there should be one called "Too Many Kittens."

I'm guessing that once more outside breeders have Kitten's Joy foals, they'll start naming them non-kitten names

Gosh I don't know. Did Mentor Cane break his maiden on the west coast or in NY?

Yeah, Mentor Cane broke his maiden at Belmont.

Shirreffs won Belmont race 3 today, too

I always hated listening to her commentary, because she called all horses "they". I get why she would say that--like "they" broke sharply, meaning the jockey and the horse--but she never used "he" or "she". Always "they". It would get confusing when she was talking about multiple horses, but never used the gender-specific pronouns or names. Just.... they, they, they.
