    Congratulations! Was he a bit of an outsider? The jockey's wearing the colours of our soccer team. :D

    16 to 1 - pretty good odds. I hope you had a bet on him Kildale. Give my congratulation to your son and I hope Bolt West goes on to win many more races for him.

    I loved going to horse races when I lived in Albuquerque.
    Congrats to your son, Bolt West and the jockey. Great finish and paid well too!

    Congratulations! A lot of work goes into getting a horse to the track. Hope the horse does well in the future for him, also.
