And thus the Triple Crown since he already won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes. Anyone win a boatload of money on a trifecta?

I didn't.

I didn't either. Horse racing isn't my thing but I'll have to admit it was impressive that they broke the triple crown dry spell.

American Pharoah, I laugh every time I see that name. The names they give race horses are so terrible, that's not the worst I've seen but it ranks right up there lol. :lol:

Frosted was my horse and he came in second. I thought for sure he would win the BS considering how he was trying to win the Kentucky Derby but didn't have enough time. He showed a lot of heart in the Derby so I expected a win at the BS from him. Pharaoh and most of all, his jockey, was determined.
