More on Mine That Bird
Description from Wikipedia:
Mine That Bird (foaled May 10, 2006 in Kentucky) is a 15 hand American racehorse and winner of the 2009 Kentucky Derby, the second biggest upset in Derby history with the second widest margin of victory. A gelding, his sire is Birdstone and his dam is Mining My Own. Mining My Own's sire is Smart Strike, who also sired Curlin, winner of the Preakness and Breeders' Cup Classic in 2007, Horse of the Year in 2007 and 2008, and the leading money-winner in North American Thoroughbred history. Birdstone is best known as the colt that denied Smarty Jones his chance at the U.S. Triple Crown by defeating him in the 2004 Belmont Stakes. Birdstone is the son of Grindstone, who won the 1996 Kentucky Derby. Mine That Bird is one of only 8 geldings to win the Derby, the second in 50 years. Funny Cide broke superstition about geldings winning the Derby when he won in 2003.
Racing in the United States at age three for new trainer Chip Woolley, in his 2009 debut on February 28, Mine That Bird finished second in the Borderland Derby and on March 29 had a fourth-place finish in the Sunland Derby. However, based on his career earnings in graded stakes races, he qualified as one of the twenty Kentucky Derby starters. Trainer Chip Woolley loaded Mine That Bird into a horse trailer attached to his pickup truck, and drove 1,700 miles over 21 hours from New Mexico to get to the big race.
