RESOLUTION

Congratulating all New Yorkers on the occasion of their first Kentucky Derby victory and the subsequent Preakness Stakes victory with New York-bred gelding, Funny Cide.

Whereas on Saturday, May 3, 2003, Funny Cide won the 129th Kentucky Derby by 1 3/4 lengths, with a time of 2:01:19, and became the first New York-bred horse to win the Run for the Roses and the first gelding to win the Derby since Clyde Van Dusen in 1929;

Whereas on Saturday, May 17, 2003, Funny Cide won the 128th Preakness Stakes by 9 3/4 lengths, with a time of 1:55:61, and became the first New York-bred horse in 107 years, and the first gelding since Prairie Bayou in 1993, to win the Preakness;

Whereas Funny Cide is the great-great grandson of the 1977 Triple Crown winner, Seattle Slew;

Whereas Funny Cide was trained by Barclay Tagg and ridden by jockey Jose Santos;

Whereas high school friends from Sackets Harbor, New York, along with friends made thereafter, are the proud owners of Funny Cide;

Whereas Funny Cide races out of Sackatoga Stables, named after the hometown of the original owners--Sackets Harbor, New York--and the home of another owner--Saratoga Springs, New York; and

Whereas Funny Cide, a horse with a reputation as being `from the wrong side of the track', has become the pride and joy of all New Yorkers: Now, therefore, be it

Resolved,

(1) congratulates Sackatoga Stables for Funny Cide's victories at the 129th Kentucky Derby and the 128th Preakness Stakes; and

(2) directs the Secretary of the Senate to make available enrolled copies of this resolution for appropriate display to the owners of Funny Cide, trainer Barclay Tagg, and jockey Jose Santos.
