File:Calvin Borel.jpg to appear as POTD soon

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Calvin Borel.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on May 7, 2011. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2011-05-07. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! howcheng {chat} 00:24, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the day

Calvin Borel is an American jockey in thoroughbred horse racing. He has won three of the last four Kentucky Derby races (2007, 2009, and 2010). In 2009, he also won the Preakness Stakes, but lost the Belmont Stakes, the third race of the so-called Triple Crown. His 2009 Derby win with Mine That Bird was the second biggest upset in Derby history behind Donerail, and Borel's winning margin of 63⁄4 lengths was the greatest in Derby history since Assault won by 8 lengths in 1946.Photo: Joe Schneid

Archive – More featured pictures...

This is a note to the editor that posting a DUI offense without waiting for a possible conviction is extremely poor form. Even with a conviction, it is extremely poor form. After all that Calvin has done for the sport of horse racing, it is truly cheap and common to include this sort of information in Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adventuress1 (talk • contribs) 15:26, 23 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Calvin Borel. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
