Calvin Borel from St Martinville, La. just down the road. He's as Cajun as they come and he won it with a two year old! Probably cut his teeth at Evangeline Downs.2tall said:

Street Sense became the first Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner to return in the spring and win on the first Saturday in May, snapping an 0-for-23 skid. He did so on the same track where he won the Juvenile by 10 lengths six months ago. He was also the first 2-year-old champion to win the Derby since Spectacular Bid in 1979, and the first colt to win with two or fewer prep races since Sunny's Halo in 1983.
