Jockey Patrick Husbands made a winning return to Woodbine in the five-furlong fourth race aboard four-year-old colt Blueblood on Saturday afternoon.
As Blueblood turned for home pressing pacesetter Speeding Bullet, fans cheered Patrick Husbands home. The duo rallied clear down the stretch to win by 1-3/4 lengths in :57.27 for trainer Mark Casse and owner Quintessential Racing Florida.
“I feel so proud and so happy to be back,” said Husbands after the race. “The emotion is always there, but I’m happy and proud to be still walking. I can’t believe I’m still walking and I’m happy right now.”
