WHEN I NEED A SMILE....THIS IS MY GO TO VIDEO. GOD THANK YOU FOR CALVIN!

Calvin Bore & Mine That Bird simply made history 50 to 1. I am glad they made the movie 50 to 1 priceless...

I watch this video at least a couple of times a year. It always brings tears to my eyes. What a wonderful horse! What a wonderful jockey! What a spectacular ride!! Thank you for it all!!

If you think about the 20,000 to 30,000 colts born each year around the world, only 20 three year olds are elected to go the the Derby. Bird was elected based on his wins in Canada as a 2 year old. Who cares if he only won one race, it's a great honor just to be elected to the big dance and he won it. He got 2nd in the Preakness and 3rd in the Belmont, he was the only horse to win money in all three races. I lived in Roswell when he won this race. we were so, so proud.

Check out when Borel makes his move. It was soo fast, it's deceptively hard to even see it on actual race footage, regardless of angle. I consider it to be one of the finest 3 seconds in ALL of horse racing, EVER.

Little brown horse caught them all off guard. All the blue bloods saying he didn't belong there. Bird showed all of them, just like another little brown horse that came from California back in 1938.

I know many feel this was a “terrible racing call” but there is a thrill in the fact that he completely snuck his way up to that lead in the final stretch. The fact that he was up by several lengths before he was even noticed gave me chills. Considering how far back he was at the start made that big spread at the end just extra amazing.

It was truly an incredible ride by Calvin, but Mine That Bird was also an incredible horse that had great speed and true heart. Loved that they made a movie about this story!

Our visit to see The Bird was great! Dr. B let us browse all the memorabilia in his office and we got signed photos and a poster from the movie 50-1. Then went across the road to the Double Eagle Ranch and Bird came over...he enjoyed some mints and carrots. We got to pet him and he licked my hand...such a sweetie! We saw his crooked left leg but he is really a nice looking guy! We sang Happy Birthday to him and gave him a card, which will be added to the memorabilia collection. He is still getting 3-4 fan visits a week!

He was so Emotional after the Race...When he said "My Mommy and Daddy" i had to Hold back my Tears...What a GREAT Ride and Run...The way Mine that Bird Finished and Won you would think that Borel might be making a Big Mistake by taking off This Derby Winner to Ride a "Filly" in The Preakness...But He Knew the GREATNESS of Rachel Alexandra and he basically GUARANTEED she would Win the Preakness...And She Did!!

Amazing how the announcer didn't even say the horse's name until he was steps from the finish line. Sadly, it was the last race that Mind That bird won.... still, just an amazing feat. A $9,500 "claimer" wins the Kentucky Derby. Love the emotion.... and really appreciate Gary Steven's comments.

I still remember this race as if it was yesterday. I remember my parents telling me that we were going to Kentucky to see the Derby and Oaks that year. The day Rachel Alexandra won the Oaks with Calvin riding her-there was talk basically everywhere I went saying "Rachel is going to demolish this field" which she did. And then, Derby day. Everywhere I went people kept saying Zayat's horse Pioneerof The Nile "is going to win this Derby easily and go on to win the Triple Crown". My parents even said so. I was thinking of Mine That Bird, how he was getting overlooked and was the underdog. I finally persuaded my parents to place their bet on Bird instead of Pioneer. They thought I was crazy. But they changed their minds when they saw him shoot up to win. I still remember the rain that day and the race and could probably recite the race word by word, even with Durkin's screw up not saying Bird's name. But that didn't matter in the end. Bird proved them all wrong. So what if never won another race after this one. He did the impossible in this race. He proved people wrong.

I can watch this race over and over and over again, especially what happens after the race. Mine That Bird was awesome, Calvin is magic.

Looked this up because I just watched the movie 50-1. Had to see it to believe it. Never been a fan of horse sports but that was a really impressive race

"WOW"!!! what a finish from 19th to 1st in a flash...!!!! just an awesome run..! God Bless Calvin and Mine that Bird...!!!

The blown call makes this race even better

One of the most amazing, inspiring athletic performances by man or beast that I've ever seen. Just incredible.

The first Derby I ever bet on and I had Mine That Bird across the board. Great payoff, but the best payoff was seeing Calvin and how much that meant to him.

He visto esta carrera ciento de veces, y realmente es emocionante... INCREÍBLE! Saludos desde Chile... 🇨🇱

2:02 3/5 coming from behind through all that slop is damn near unbelievable. Greatest ride I've ever seen.

Wish I could go back in time and whisper in Bob Baffert's ear, "Don't worry about your horse losing. Pioneerof the Nile is going to sire a colt they'll name American Pharoah."

Dang, they cut some of Calvin's happy freakout after the race. Too bad, because it was hilarious and wonderful. And it was glorious to watch all the backsiders fist-bumping him. This race is pure legend.

Nobody believed me when I said that Mine That Bird would win the Kentucky Derby. I believe in that little horse!

Visiting Bird Tues. May 3 in the morning! Have his mints for him! 10th Birthday on May 10...so excited to see this boy!!!!

Just beautiful. Rider and horse have great spirit and communication. Great race.

Mom was really proud to watch that race in 2009, she was so excited jumped off the sofa and just started screaming for no damm reason. She's from Tohajiilee and also one of the owners of one the those horses. I don't know which one. I just like riding em.

This should go down as one of the best finishes ever. From last to first into the stretch?!

MAN I CANT BELIEVE HOW M.T.B MADE THEM LOOK LIKE THEY WERE ALMOST STANDING STILL. I KEEP WATCHING THINKING IT LOOKS FAKE! WHAT A GREAT STORY! I LOVE IT

Long Live Calvin Borel!

Calvin Borel's voice is incredible. If he ever retires from being a jockey, he should get into voice acting.

You made me big money that fabulous first Saturday in May! Thanks cowboy 😜

People say Durkin blew the call, but I think it really fits the moment. It was utter surprise & you couldn't have picked this horse out in the turn/ stretch unless you were looking specifically at him the whole way...Calvin waves bye to them all in the last furlong...i was sitting with about 6 people watching this race and in the post parade i almost said I'll give each of you $100 bucks if mine that bird wins.

Simply beautiful. The man, the horse. Beautiful.

The only jockey that could have pulled that off is Calvin. Love this moment!!!

won $20,000 on this race. Thank u mine that bird!! (& calvin borel)

Awesome!! Just watched the movie and then this clip....amazing!!

People always complain about the call. I love it. That little horse weaseled his way through the final turn and caught everyone off guard. Next to Rachel Alexandras Preakness win, my favorite race.

Calvin Borel did the same thing with Street Sense, but you'll never hear about it because he was the favorite.

Calvin is awesome 🤩 beautiful Birdie 🐎

Kentucky Derby 2024!

50 to 1 Love that movie!!

This is still my favourite/racing moment off all time!!!#2019!!!!! Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra also something to remember that season!!!

The movie, "50 to 1" is great to watch also. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed this 'feel good' film.

I remember, when I was about 10 years old, my dad Billy McLeod would ride " Red Wing " his race horse, across or over mountains to Kamloops, to enter Red Wing in the July 1st celebrations.

Still get chills watching this!

I'm willing the cut Tom Durkin some slack here. Heck, I've watched the replay five times, and I STILL have problems picking up Mine That Bird as he charges through the pack. Durkin had to try to do it live while tracking 15 or so other horses.

One of the greatest display's jockey skill !

Looking forward to seeing Calvin Borel playing himself in the movie '50 to 1'. Along with Christian Kane, Skeet Ulrich and William Devane. :D

Wow, what a finish!

Increible .... 50 a 1 !! Calvin Borel

never forget this race

just another kentucky derby winner with the bloodline of Northern Dancer in him more than once the greatest sire of the 20th century

Best Ride ever

awesome video! thanks for sharing..

El mejor jinete de la historia por el esfuerzo q se notó en su corazón.. ❤️ se le admira y se respeta. 🤝🤝👏👏

So good.. sooo good...

la mejor del mundo mine that bird i love

Hidalgo, 50-1 great movies....

Isso ficou Marcado pra história. 🇧🇷💪🏇

and to think emerging from this race in 2nd was the sire of 2015 triple crown winner.

one of tom durkins worst race calls...he really kills the moment

Now the favorite wins every year.

My favorite race ever, I watch it at least 3 times a year. The race caller had such disdain for Mine That Bird and he ended up with egg on his face as Calvin and the Bird humiliated the field.

What a terrible call by the announcer. The movie, "50 To 1" was great and showed the race exactly this way. Bird was a modern day Sea Biscuit. And what a great story going back to the late 1990"s showing how the impossible never is.

ESPECTACULAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Splashtastic!

Check out the movie 50 to 1.

WOW! I thought I seen it all! WoW!

AMAZING CONGRATULATIONS! TODAY REMEMBER JULY 29 2020!

Yea, awesome. Classic Calvin. The race Bird ran was like a videogame with difficulty set to 'easy-mode'... We all know it is hard to fly thru those holes along the rail.

Cuando se dio la partida, nadie podía imaginar que dos minutos después, Mine That Bird se convertiría en el segundo mayor batacazo ($ 102,30 a ganador) en la historia del Derby de Kentucky detrás de Donerail en 1913 ($ 184,90 a ganador). Si Mine That Bird fue una opción de 50 a 1 ¡Donerail fue 91 a 1!

Calvin Bo Rail!!

I love you all!!!

Mine that Bird is as calm as a pleasure horse like nothing just happened. 😄

Браво!

Todo es posible en la vida (everything is possible in life).

Lo mejor que a pasado en la historia hipismo en el mundo

calvin borel the king

BOREL GENIUS.COME TO US IN ITALY!!!!!

Announcer BLOWS the call !! And he tries to hide it.

Hermoso

Not even close. He was second in the Preakness, and third in the Belmont. He was a champion 2 year old in Canada. This was not a fluke.

ce cheval est incroyable!!!!

two of my bets for this race were 1 dollar trifecta 16/2,5,7 and 1 dollar superfecta 16/ 2,5,7 the 2 and 7 were huge odds I think. the order came 8-16-2-7. ol Calvin cost me a monster Tri

Wow!!

my #1most cheished video on the net.... hooves down. hands down.

beste horse bravoo

If you like mine that bird watch the movie called 50 to 1 which is based on his road to the Derby

first of all VIVA NUEVO MEXICO My family has racehorses and that's out life we live in New Mexico and I have winning pictures from the race signed by Calvin I have also touched the bridle used in the derby and I personally know chip

Dead last to first amazing thought he had no way he could make that up . Shows you jockey matters ..

Damn what a finish

No.1

I guess they forgot about the races in Canada. By two years of age the horse won some pretty big races. Supposedly without the use of a shocking device if I may add.

Definitely not the worst horse to win the Derby, it was a great run. The race call however, terrible. How could miss that beautiful inside run and call it so late? Horrible call.

You guys should also check out the show "Jockeys." Season 1, last episode. where it shows the drama leading up to this Kentucky derby race. It gives me chills still when i watch this remarkable finish by this great horse. Mine that bird, thank u for winning me $20,000. Changed my life.

Swan Song ride, enjoy the fruits of the loom shirt brand and what we sow is what we reaped enjoy your retirement Sir

*2019 ?*

Невероятно!

just goes to say ,n any Race, anybody can Win!!!!

Love me some "Borel"
