uplifting racing story this weekend. Shakespeare, a true ‘comeback kid’, made a huge move on the inside to win the Woodbine Mile just as it looked like Kip Deville (who ran a great race) had it in the bag.

What strikes me about as interesting about Shakespeare’s story is that he’s overcome a lot of injury’s and is still going strong… some we don’t see too much. Oh, we see the injuries, just not the time to recover from them and make appropriate comebacks. Let’s hope his comeback and win this weekend is a sign that we’ll see our beloved Rags to Riches next year, rolling down the stretch to win it big.

Story includes a race replay, make sure to watch it.
