    This is without a doubt the greatest Kentucky Derby winning run in history. Going around the last turn he passed all the others like they were standing still. And...........at. 50-1
  • @johnhunter2294
    I picture MTB saying "Excuse me... coming through... pardon me..." as he passes the entire field. One of the great rides of all time.
  • @wh1654
    The perfect ride. The way Calvin came back to the rail after the move to the middle to pass the one horse took guts and a believe that the horse would get through amazes me every time I see this

    Mine That Bird was the Canadian 2 year old champion Horse of the Year. Obviously, he could run.
  • I love this horse. What heart. 🐎 Oh my gosh, Calvin` s reaction is monumental. Totally love this video.
  • When the horses came out from the stall, the announcer not even mention MineThat Bird!!
  • I LOVE that they got it!!!! & Mine That Bird!!!! WOW! I remember the sweet emotion & exhilaration of Calvin & I just thought it was perfect that Calvin got a win like that. That was an amazing race. Can't even imagine the high he felt...although he communicated it very well!
