For the record the overnight stakes name committee approves the horses all three races are named after as overnight stakes worthy.

Who trained Lake George in the 1995 Kentucky Derby?

Pupye I think? But the race is named after the actual lake not the horse I believe

I know!

It was Jason Orman of Rock Hard Ten fame.

But wasn't the horse named after the Lake??

[Calzone Lord]

I can't even get my own trivia right. It was Mike Orman and not Jason who trained him.

The Curlin is Friday. I wish at least 3 of them were in the Dandy. I would give them a big shot over Gemologist.

Uh yeah but the race is still named after the lake/town not the horse of the same name

The chart for that race (and his next start, 6-26-95) list "Orman, J." as the trainer. That would be Jason, right? Plus I remember it being Jason.

It's a beautiful lake, well deserving of the honor, both of the race and the horse being named after it.

I believe the horse is actually now pulling tourists around in a cart around the lake

[Indian Charlie]

Lake George was one of the most beautiful race horses I ever saw.

Is it my imagination, or was Better Lucky tons the best today?

I think the winner was probably 4th or 5th best all things considered. Better Lucky ran huge and so did Medolina who was way too close to the pace.

I didn't think there was any chance that Better Lucky would still be around at the end of the race. After that trip, I thought for sure a fade in the stretch was likely, but that sustained run was pretty damn impressive. Too bad 15-1 won't be available again.
