  1. No he did not. Got boxed in from the onset and it cost him.

    He needed to take the lead but having the #1 spot made that difficult.

    Too bad, I wish he had won.

    .


  2. NO who would name a horse big brown

  3. Unfortunately, not. I had *so* hoped we'd have a Triple Crown winner this year and I had really seen the possibility in Big Brown.

  4. No, he didn't win.  He didn't run like usual, which was a disappointment to his jockey, and just about everyone else.

  5. no

  6. No, he finished last place.

  7. No, he came in last place b/c the jockey slowed him up.

  8. Until more comes out on this event, we'll all be wondering why BB just didn't have his stuff today, was a bit balky, and if he might have something seriously wrong with himself.  His jockey's decision to ease him up (sensing the horse's uncharacteristic powerlessness and discomfort) was commendable.  Instead of finishing first, he ended up last after easing up.

  9. No he did. His jockey pulled him up and had him finish in last. I applaud Kent for having the sense to slow down Big Brown and probably save his hoof. I also agree that Big Brown is not a phenomenal horse and that he is just the best out of a poor group of horses and I may add a poor group of people. I mean really, it is no great wonder to the rest of the horse community (the few that aren't involved in racing and have brains) why Big Brown and other race horses have bad feet. These two and three year old horses aren't meant to run this hard and encounter this much stress at such a young age. Horses don't fully mature till they are five. It's like having a thirteen year old compete in the Olympics. Its not right and the child will probably have som eosrt of injury immediately or later on in life. And when they breed these unsound horses to each other they produce more horses that are set up for lameness (in there hooves). It just so happened that Big Brown happened to get a dose of genetics. Racing horses at such a young age is cruel, it ruins the horses and breaks down their legs literally so that they live in pain for the rest of their lives, and no amount of shoeing can help them. I think that Big Brown's owners got a taste of their own medicine, racing a horse that was too young and he finally wore out. Take that for not properly taking care of you horse and take that the rest of all horse racing fans and all of the people out their that still think horse racing is the 'sport of kings'. More like 'sport of abuse' if you ask me.

  10. No, Kent pulled him up and he came in last. kent latter said Brow did not feel right he (kent) "hed no horse left"

  11. Not exactly.

  12. Nope, poor little guy
