Preakness Day!

Hello everyone! If you've been reading my blog, you know that I blogged about the Kentucky Derby, the first leg of the Triple Crown. Today is Preakness day, and I am super excited! Calvin Borel, the winning jockey of the Kentucky Derby, predicted that his horse Super Saver would be a Triple Crown winner. Of course, that would be the first time the Triple Crown has been won since 1978 when Affirmed won it. Personally, I would LOVE to see it happen, but it's a very hard thing to achieve, and we'll just have to wait and see. My fingers are crossed!

If you didn't watch the Derby or don't typically watch the Triple Crown races, I recommend that you do today! It's super exciting and fun, and to watch just the race doesn't take long! It goes off at 6:05 PM Eastern Time, and will very likely be over and done by 6:07 at the latest, so it won't take much of your day! Tune in, and let's see if we can get another step closer to history being made...

Live and Love,
Melanie

UPDATE: Calvin Borel and Super Saver did not win the Preakness, which sadly puts an end to their Triple Crown quest. Congratulations to the connections of Lookin at Lucky on a race well run!
