Here are a few of the horses I love--clockwise--Rags to Riches, Nicanor, Nicanor with his winter coat, and Barbaro with Dr. Richardson. Nicanor is Barbaro's baby brother for those who don't know of him. I used a Flickr tool from Big Huge Labs to create this mosaic as Thing 6.
Big Brown Wins the Preakness
I am still sad over the loss of Eight Belles at the Kentucky Derby while I delighted in Big Brown's decisive win. After I watched the Florida Derby in early spring, I knew Big Brown would be a contender for the Triple Crown. His looks remind me of Barbaro. Well he did it again folks at the Preakness. I would love to see him win the Triple Crown. He's an awesome horse.

If you love horses and have time to watch this, it's worth it. I am lucky enough to have witnessed this Triple Crown victory. I was a race fan even back then:
