Hansen and other Derby horses on the turn before Kentucky Derby 5/5/2012 [01:57]
Hansen fidgets and is a handful for jockey Ramon Dominguez; the rest of the field passes him on the second turn during their warmups for the Kentucky Derby (5/5/2012, Churchill Downs, Louisville, KY). Some of the other horses/jockeys in this film are Union Rags (Julien Leparoux), Bodemeister (Mike Smith), Dullahan (Kent Desormeaux), Take Charge Indy (Calvin Borel), Went the Day Well (John Velazquez), and others. This video was shot from the Churchill track kitchen window, therefore not that clear. The voices are people in there watching the race. A nice vantage point, and air conditioned, too.

Ready To Defer WON 2nd AQU 1.7.12.avi [07:00]
Ready To Defer didn't just WIN the 2nd race at the Big A on Saturday, January 7th, he won it with authority. Ramon went to the front and controlled the pace after getting the horse to pay attention. He was looking around a bit right out of the gate (which was my first "Oh boy no blinkers, he's not focusing") but then I looked at our Jock. The thing about Ramon Dominguez is his hands. You watch his hands, if his hands are not moving he knows he has plenty of horse beneath him and his hands never moved. The rest is history. He won by 7 and never looked back. He came out of the race in good order and should be ready to run again in about 4 weeks. CONGRATULATIONS to everybody!
