The Jinx Continues

The Racing Form is reporting that juvenile champ Stevie Wonderboy is out of the Derby with a hairline condylar fracture to his front right foot, thus continuing the streak of the BC Juvenile winner not winning the Kentucky Derby. Owner Merv Griffin said, "He's out of the Derby. It's the saddest thing in my life."

I know he must be terribly disappointed, but all in all, I guess that Merv must be having a pretty good life.
