Why we need colored saddle towels:

One horse had jockey silks with green and white blocks (Team of Teams), another horse, green and white diamonds (Morticia), and a third, white, with a green diamond hoop (Bellavais). All three jockeys also wore green caps.

And no off turf at Belmont like there is at Pimlico. They went 1:19 and change for the 7 furlongs.

1-red
2-white
3-blur
4-yellow
5-green
6-blacik
7-red

another complaint from a sore loser as if colors matter when betting horses.

When did I say that I didn't know they existed already? And there emoticons for up to #20 on here, but the ones for 21 through 24, now possible thanks to the Derby implementing an also-eligible list, have not been added yet (clears throat).

Indeed, had Cloud Computing gotten in off the also-eligible list in the Derby, he would have been #22.

Someone is trolling here, but it's not him. The point he was making that you REALLY missed is that in that race there were 3 horses running with very similar silks so it helped having different color saddle cloths to tell who was who.
