Barbaro's "Larger than Life" statue was unveiled today at the entrance to Churchill Downs. Standing at 10.5 feet tall, with all four legs off the ground, recapturing his stride while winning the 2006 Kentucky Derby. I became a huge fan of Barbaro, first while watching him pull away from the rest of the field in the Derby. And then after his injury, pulling for him to survive. While some members have struggled in coming up with a nick-name for their new Camaro, it was an easy choice for me......BARBARO!
