Kentucky Derby winning jockey Brian Hernandez Jr. was a guest on Glenn Clark Radio Tuesday.
Among the topics he discussed were:
-His weekend in Louisville, not only winning his first Derby but also winning the Kentucky Oaks with Thorpedo Anna
-The confidence that trainer Kenny McPeek has shown in him over the years and what it means to him to pay that confidence off
-Being inspired by Calvin Borel’s run on Super Saver in the 2010 Derby as he moved toward the rail on Mystik Dan
-Did he know immediately that they had won while they were waiting for the photo finish?
-How confident he is in Mystik Dan’s ability to turn around and run again in two weeks if he’s able to come to Baltimore and run in the Preakness
