Wow, Royal Delta won! Nice race! And conceding FIVE whole pounds to St. John's River--that's incredible! God, how long has it been since a horse was asked to make such a huge weight concession, and won?

Wow... Royal Delta could not have won that easier!
Very impressive. They should have run her in the Foster.

Royal Delta made it look easy.
"That's all the world is after all, an endless battle of contrasting memories."
Wow!! I saw those ears pricked as she made the move on the turn and figured she had it no problem. So easy.
She sure loves Churchill. She's run very nice races in other places, of course, but the most visually stunning races were this and the Distaff.
Glad to see she came back from Dubai in great shape!
Sea The Stars - perfection in equine form, a horse of a lifetime!
Looks like Big Momma's back in town. ;-)

Wow, that was beautiful. Picture perfect. A super sharp horse with a nice ride by Smith. Kudos and congrats to Mr. Mott!

You're the bomb diggity, Partymanners.
@MollyJRosen: Watching Royal Delta in the winner's circle was hysterical... she was very clear which was her good angle and the grooms weren't hearing it
@DerbyMedia: Editioral comment from Equibase's Jack Valentine after Fleur de Lis: "Margins are 8, 4 1/4 & 6 1/2. You know, it could have been 80!"

LOL, the theme tonight is Desert Oasis.
WOOOOO! That's my girl!
What was that fool's name... songofthesouth or something? He's never heard of St John's River or Afleeting Lady. I mean honestly. He must be buried under the rock in Little Rock.
What a cakewalk. Talk about in hand. Ultra impressive.
What a race! She is such a gorgeous animal.
PartyManners: Thank you for having the Foster and the Fleur de Lis up SO QUICKLY.
You're the BEST!!!
