Shout-out to Mr. and Mrs. Rafael Hernandez, the couple responsible for the care of Mystik Dan ... 👍
I won the 150th Kentucky Derby and all I got is this blanket!
He seems like a nice horse to be around too. I love that he gets peppermints. Congrats to him and his human team.
Nice to hear the care team acknowledged too.
I love that he is actively looking for treats, this means he is used to getting them and this isn't just a photo op.
Mystic Dan chomping away. Good sign. Congratulations!
Beautiful Bay Colt. He is also very even tempered and the noise/crowds don't seem to bother him. Congratulations on the Kentucky Derby win to his connections.
What a treat to watch fantastic sweet horse and the people who care for him thanks for sharing
Kentucky Derby Champion, Mystik Dan Looks Really Well!! It's Like He Never Raced!! Doesn't Look Tired Either!! He Just Looks Like A TRUE CHAMPION!! Congratulations!!❤
My very pick (literally won my bet!) from the start! He’s a beautiful horse ❤
I know!! He is A Beautiful Looking Horse!! Thank You for sharing this reply with me!!😁😁
He was SCREAMING FOR THE WIRE!! & HARDLY ATE ANYTHING THAT EVENING. I doubt he will be in the shorter Preakness!!
Well?? It's up to Mr. Mcpeek!! He Made it to the finish line, regardless!! He did better than everyone else!! I and anyone of us would LOVE TO BE IN THE WINNERS CIRCLE!!
He looks a lot like his great great great great grandaddy Northern Dancer who was described as feisty and mean spirited. Also a very handsome horse. Nice to see Mystic Dan who seems to be easy going in this video. Thank you for posting this heart warming video.
He sure nailed it. Congrats to him and the team
Such a nice tempered horse, so calm and probably because he has been well loved.
Very Hunmble!! Love mystik Dan
I'm tired. Much respect to the groom
What a good boy.
Congrats to Mystic Dan and the team.
indeed
Hey Dan ! Way to go buddy...you survived the 12 giving you a shove to the rail. Who's a good boy.
The most!! happy, humble, beautifull horse I have seem after Rich Strike. Rich was beautifull arrogant, and with quite a character. Rich and Mystik were overlooked!!! But both made history. Don't underestimate a human or an animal. Seems like Mytik has a problem with his right back leg. Congratulations !!!. Please look after him.
I have concerns about his right back leg.
Right hind.
Best Horse racing channel is right here..great videos
Felicidades al campeón y su equipo gracias por el video
I notice lots of women handling him and they are I patient and kind . I think it makes a difference.
It's kinda like washing a car LOL 😅😅
I believe he’s going to be a legend ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Very content horse. Laid back. Must have a good family and home. Well done team.
Please take good care of this beautiful athlete and give him the good life he deserves.
What an exceptionally quiet thoroughbred. A lot of times, they are high-strung.
He does seem a gentle soul❤
He has no idea how famous he is. Just enjoying a some hay and a bath the day after having some running fun.
Beautiful horse and I love the name!
Man. Being around a racehorse can be very therapeutic and very relaxing. After a really long day.😂
Thanks so much for your detailed wonderful coverage so appreciated. Beautiful footage 😍
Torpedo Annie wow what a mare!!
Beautifull victory’s
The best horse won there derby.
Isn't he lovely! He seems to know that he's done good!
This Champion just a good ole soul. Looks grand
Excellent trip to the finish line! Beautiful colt!
He’s a good boy.
what a sweet baby he is.
Hey Hey Hey - The Dan Man Rules - Mystik, Peppermints & All ... did we mention Brian Hernandez === brilliant Trip !!!
The yellow lab belongs to Kenny. Living in Arkansas my whole life I love the owners of the winner all live in Arkansas. Lance Gasaway graduated from the same college I did Arkansas A&M.
What a good boy! His conformation is perfection! ❤️
Belmont would love to see mystic dan win the Preakness.
Congratulations to the Mcpeek barn . Great weekend , hope both horses are fine.
I don’t think he’ll be able to run in the Preakness. He’s likely supposed to be resting before the Saratoga Belmont.
Beautiful.
Triple crown winner
Beautiful chestnut colt ❤❤❤❤❤
That is a bay.
The champion is bilingual too! Super cool video!
So was Barbaro...They would talk to him in Spanish.
Being a sportsman I have to say Congratulations even though you guys cost me money. It's ok I never bet what I can't afford to lose. Best of luck going forward.
شكرا 💐💐💐👍😊
Out to pasture after such a big successful day ..should be his reward.
Oats and molasses too. Carrots ...
He is too young to be put out to pasture and racehorses are fed oats, molasses, carrots, etc. every day.
He ran without blinders.
Blinkers.
Well, I see he likes his baths
I wish the people in this video were in the winners circle and acknowledged when the horse wins. Since they are the ones who care for these beautiful animals for better or worse. Not like some owner(s ) who only show up with their fake smiles
to get the glory for work they didn’t do .
As employees of the racing stable, they are welcome to be. How do you know they were not there?
handsome and happy
His trainer is having second thoughts about running him in The Preakness. Sad state of affairs: race horses bred nowadays are not as durable.
You should have named him "Mystik Don", then I would have cashed a hunch bet.😉 Congrats to all the Dan hunch bettors.🤑
I always enjoy a good squeegee after warm shower myself…
What a cutie 🥰
I ran, got some attention from fans, relaxing bath and my clean stall. What is everyone making a fuss about? Just a breathles ly beautify well behaved royal horse not rreally aware of tthe humans joy. Love! Thank you
Why wasn't flight line in the derby?
He’s retired and five years old. The Derby is for three year olds only.
Ojalá gané la triple corona
I think one can see the Arab influence in his head.
Is Mystik Dan's back right leg ok? 13:06
Yes
He’s just relaxing it that’s what they do when they are standing for some time
Very refined ; fine boned
The Goldencents seem to all be like that
Cool horse. Try to be gentler while cleaning him. You made a very relaxed stallion flinch a few times. His calmness is stunning.
He's only a Colt, he'll become a stallion when he turns 4. Ungelded male Horses are colts until they turn 4 years old.
Takes lead in stretch and draws off by 3 lengths...Serra Leone hard charging second. Two
Dollar Exacta returns $33.00
What is the white stuff they wash off his front legs?
Poultice. It improves blood circulation so helps the legs recover, helps to prevent or heal injuries. In this case helping his legs recover from the race like a quarterback would ice their shoulder after a game.
80 to 1 and he wasn't on the roster too run 2 day's before the derby...
Why is chaining his mouth like that
The pressure from the lip chain releases endorphins and helps to calm and relax the horse...essentially like a baby's pacifier. Notice the only time they have it on is when he comes out for his bath surrounded by media. He's naturally a relaxed horse, but it helped to keep him calm in what could have been a stressful scenario. I saw him get his bath this morning when there was no crowd and he wasn't using it. It's just designed to keep him relaxed.
TOO BAD CAMERAS AND VIDEOS DID NOT SHOW ENOUGH REASPECT AND ATTENTION TO THIS HORSE WHO RAN HIS ASS OFF TO WIN....TOO MUCH ON THE OWNERS ETC...
He won’t win the Preakness….
What sweet horse...I don't follow racing and not an equestrian but I do subscribe to some horse channels. He seemed very content chomping on his hay and he seem to know the lady and she was petting him. Then comes the young woman who takes him to get washed. She didn't even greet him...was all business and why was that chain in his mouth. The man washing him also showed no connection and just threw water at the poor horse. The horse deserved some extra TLC for winning. I have watched horses lovingly being washed and brushed and so this was shocking and uncomfortable to watch. Fortunately, the horse was well behaved.
They have a job to do. Mystik Dan is one of 40 horses his team cares for. They all need to be trained, walked, washed, etc and the track is only open for 3.5 hours. They got to move on to the next horse. That doesn’t mean they don’t care for him, they just go give him love once they’re done with everyone, which they do. I have spent many hours around that barn in the last week and every single member of that staff loves and cares for him so much. They are also tremendous workers and are dedicated to the tasks at hand. They start at 4 a.m. and many of them live on the track itself. It is their life and their passion. It’s easy to see the owners in this video showing him love because they don’t have anything else to do at the time. The workers didn’t have their luxury, but once work is over they’re in the stalls with the horses showing them love. You can tell by how well mannered Mystik Dan is how well they care for him. As far as the chain, it’s a lip chain. It puts pressure on his mouth which releases endorphins to help keep him relaxed, like a baby’s pacifier. He wore it when they were going to bring him into the sea of media to help him stay relaxed and took it off once he was out of that scenario. That’s the only day they’ve used it with him because it was a unique scenario where they didn’t know how he’d react…he took the attention like the champ he is.
You can’t compare needing to bathe 40 horses in a tight time period to videos of people who only need to bathe one.
@@apharoah12
Each groom is responsible for 4 horses. Hotwalkers never have more than six.
@celine federici6951
They are typical backstretch workers, for better or worse. If you want your racehorses to have extra time spent on them like a pet, you will need to provide that yourself. The "big horse" (the popular one of the moment) gets all of the extra attention.
The chain is under lip and over his upper gums! That is terrible!
The lip chain does not hurt him. If it caused him any discomfort, it would be covered in vet wrap. The pressure from the lip chain releases endorphins and helps to calm and relax the horse...essentially like a baby's pacifier. Notice the only time they have it on is when he comes out for his bath surrounded by media. He's naturally a relaxed horse, but it helped to keep him calm in what could have been a stressful scenario. I saw him get his bath this morning when there was no crowd and he wasn't using it. It's just designed to keep him relaxed.
That chain config is totally normal for safe handling of lots of colts, especially when they’re surrounded by press and random people. His handler removes the chain from his gums around 13:00 when he’s proven that he’s going to stay chill. In all of the other videos he’s just got it looped around the noseband. He’s so much more chill than most other 3 yr old TBs! He’s calm, curious, unafraid, and barely even mouthy at all which, again, is not normal for a TB colt (although he does nip his owner at about 21:18). He doesn’t even mind having his face, ears, and crotch washed! 😝Evidence of fabulous and gentle handling.
How about get that chain out from under his lip! Horrible!!
The lip chain does not cause discomfort, it actually does the opposite. The pressure releases endorphins which help to relax the horse. The only time he wore it was when they brought him out into a sea of people since they didn’t know how he’d behave in that scenario, it gave him some extra comfort. Like a baby’s pacifier. As soon as he walked away from the scenario it was removed and he hasn’t used it the rest of the week. If it did cause any discomfort, it would be wrapped in vet wrap. It’s a tool that helps relax the horse, doesn’t give any pain.
@@apharoah12 ok ty. I know twitching their nose does that I’ve just never seen a chain pushing on their gums like that.
Mystic Dan should have been disqualified when he bumped and squeezed in between Track Phantom at the 3/4 pole!
If you disqualified everyone who bumped someone it would be most of the twenty horse field.
@@ernesthercher5193 IT WOULD MATTER IF YOUR HORSE WOULD HAVE WON!
My horse did win. The Oaks also.
@@ernesthercher5193
Did you play the double, if so what did it pay? I played Thorpedo Anna and Sierra Leone double. Unfortunately that did not happen.
