Horse Racing Nation has a vibrant community in our comments section, always at the ready to debate the topic at hand with varied degrees of passion and vehemence. Here are some of the best comments from the last seven days of our content.

Hot Rod Charlie earned his first victory of 2021 in the Louisiana Derby (G2) on Saturday, likely punching his ticket to the Kentucky Derby. After the race, MaiyaDay shared some thoughts on the trip.

On the fillies side, Travel Column proved best in the Fair Grounds Oaks (G2). Jbumi shared some high expectations for the filly’s budding rivalry with Clairiere.

Saturday also marked two-time Big ‘Cap winner Lava Man’s 20th birthday. The comments section was full of well-wishers for the colt, who now serves as a stable pony for Doug O’Neill’s barn.

United returned as a victor after a five-month layoff in the San Luis Rey (G3) at Santa Anita. After the race, Goodnightmush celebrated the win.
