Co-favorite Renegade finished in second. [QUOTE]Ridden by Jose Ortiz, Golden Tempo navigated past 17 other horses around the final turn and made a hard charge down the stretch. With a crowd of more than 100,000 watching and roaring at Churchill Downs, Golden Tempo passed morning-line favorite Renegade -- ridden by Jose's brother Irad -- just before the wire to win by a neck at odds of 23-1. The winning time for the 1¼-mile race was 2:02.27.[/QUOTE] Look how far behind the last horses Golden Tempo was before making up all that distance during the last stretch to cross the finish line as the winner.
