  1. Now we need the first woman jockey to win. And then second, third, fourth. A few dozen years where only women trainers and jockeys and owners win.

    That horse and rider ran a TREMENDOUS race. I’ve been watching the Derby for over 40 years and it felt so good to see such an amazing race with such a historic outcome. I’ve watched it at least 10 times since it happened and it still blows me away. Phenomenal

    I grew up in Kentucky, and I always bet on the grays. This year there were two. One threw his rider before they could get him into the starting gate, and the other came in dead last.

    Next year I’ll just pick a brown one.

    Always nice to see a woman excel in a predominantly male-dominated field.

  5. Hooray! Finally a woman won at training animals to get whipped for people’s entertainment!

    And we’re this close to getting a female CEO of Let’s Kick Orphans, Inc., too. #feminism #girlboss
