Poor Calvin....he has had kind of a hard go of it lately. I wish him a speedy recovery. Should be good as gold by Derby time.....hopefully sooner so he can race at Oaklawn.

I can't figure out what happened. They only showed the replay a couple of times.

Churchill downs inc can charge 55 dollars PPV and get these two guys in the ring. They would sell some views no doubt!

I hope this injury doesn't change Calvin's Appalachian smile.
He's got teeth but where are they?

In case anyone missed the AP release:

Quote:
Three-time Kentucky Derby winning jockey Calvin Borel will be out five to six weeks after suffering a broken jaw when unseated by his horse during the $1 million Delta Downs Jackpot on Saturday in Vinton, La.

Borel's agent, Jerry Hissam, said Borel is having surgery Sunday at Jewish Hospital in Louisville.

The 44-year-old Borel was aboard Aces N Kings when the 2-year-old horse unseated Borel. The jockey fell to the turf, sustaining a 4-inch gash in his chin. Borel hopped back on the horse to finish the race.
I kid you not, the Louisville Courier-Journal reprinted that. You'd think by now there'd be at least one person around that paper who could spot the wacky, and perhaps wonder aloud how in the world they managed to fit his bouncy moon boots into those tiiiny irons...

I am sarcastic as hell, but you guys are cold and cruel!


I respect the hell out of Calvin...are there reasons that you all don't?
