As a distributor for THE Equine Edge, I am so proud to be a part of their company and their continued success.
I had to watch the race on my phone  as we were traveling but it was amazing!!
I want to congratulate Art Sherman, Bob Baffert, California Chrome & Hopportunity for coming in 1st & 3rd. Both are on Equine Edge Muscle Mass.

Chrome brought my household to tears.  We were all screaming at the TV and cheering.  What a great horse!  Alot of credit to Taylor Made Farms for playing a huge role in getting him back healthy and race ready.  It's truly been an honor to see both Chrome and AP the last couple of years.  I fell in love with Chrome and the entire story and was heartbroken when it couldn't quite get there in the Belmont, but the World Cup made up for it.  My hat is off to all connections who have played a part in Chrome's success!

I've told a good friend of mine for years my favorite color is chrome, all my horses are sorrels with big blazes and socks so California Chrome hit a soft place in my heart from the get go on top of his story. What an absolute pleasure to watch him run!!! His Belmont broke my heart but I had a feeling he had more in his tank. So good to see him in his January race come back looking so amazingly healthy and run like he did. I figured that race would serve him well for the next one and from his prep race in Dubia it was pretty obvious they had him on a good path. Victor's ride in the World Cup was nothing short of perfection, and to do it with a girth that was that loose, holy moley! And when Chrome dropped his belly and cleared the field, chills!!! Cried over my lunch watching on my phone. I'll never quit being that 8 year old girl that fell in love with horses while watching Secretariat romp in the 73 Triple Crown races. Thank you CC for bringing some of that little girl alive yet again this last Saturday <3

I saw something about that on one of the news sites.... I don't remember how much it was but they did say he's won more than any horse in history with this 6 million dollar take-home.

Found it... Earnings: $12,532,650
