The Preakness 2012 is over and now all sights are firmly set at the
Belmont Stakes in the horseracing world (in Northern America at least!),
with high hopes on I'll Have Another to pull off a memorable Triple
Crown -after over 34 years since Affirmed won in 1978 And what a
beautiful way the three countries of the continent connect behind this
horse! Congratulations to Mario Guttierez, trainer Doug O'Neill and his team, and to the owner and rest of the connections!
Canada - as the owner of the horse is Canadian businessman J. Paul Reddam,
Mexico - as the country of origin for "Marvelous" Mario, the pilot of this superb horse and the original buyer/ Mr. Davila (a neat story about him here) and
USA - that's where the Triple Crown happens!
So there is lot of goodwill going and cheering going on from all three
places. Below you will find a reply of the Preakness 2012, as an
overhead video (courtesy NBC) with analysis from their commentators. I
am not allowed to embed it, so I am just pointing you to the link
(it has a 30 sec commercial in the beginning)
