How fitting.
Undrafted, the thoroughbred horse owned by former Broncos receiver Wes Welker, the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot in England on Saturday. The 5-year-old horse, named after Welker’s NFL draft status in 2004, gave American trainer Wesley Ward his first Group One win in England, a victory worth $473,000, .
If only Welker had actually been there to bask in the glory.
“I can’t believe I didn’t make the trip over!” with a photo of Ward receiving the gold trophy from Queen Elizabeth II. “Can’t believe we won!”
I can’t believe I didn’t make the trip over! Can’t believe we won! and Wesley Ward
