After the race, the American Association of Equine Practitioners' on-call vet Dr. Kathleen Anderson issued the following update on Thousand Words: “The good news is the horse is absolutely fine. He did misbehave in the paddock and was scratched after he fell over sort of onto his side. He's returned to the stable area. Had a thorough examination by Dr. Kevin Dunlavy, his regular practitioner, and has been cleared for service with not a scratch upon him. So we're very pleased with that outcome.”

 and then--- Authentic loses it in the winners circle and knocks Baffert on his butt----

Glad to hear 1000 Words is ok: I was really worried about him

 that is a nice Beyer figure----

The problem is these horses have been working, schooling and racing Since March with no one around. The only people allowed in the barns, the paddock, winners circle Etc are 

the trainer, jockey, groom and maybe 1 more person. 
The Derby was run with owners, friends and a few others in attendance. This was a huge crowd compared to what the horses have seen lately. It is lucky Bob and all the people in the winners circle were not injured.

That’s a good beyer

Barne’s wife posted on FB Jimmy’s hand is set and they are heading to Hotel, he will need surgery but it can wait till they are back home in CA

5th fastest Derby time! 

i was thinking the same thing!!!

Baffert’s 2 will stay in Wayne Lukas’s barn and head to Preakness in a month.
