Buddy from Brooklyn Horse Racing Directory and Info Page
From Producer Jay Shapiro: On Sunday April 26, 2026 I was scrolling through my facebook feed and noticed a post with all of the Kentucky Derby horses and the odds. I am not a horse bettor. I've tried it a few times not knowing what I was doing. But when I saw this post I instantly picked my horses: Albus, Intrepido, Litmus Test and Six Speed. Six speed was actually my first pick; not because of the 50 to one odds, simply based on a feeling! I saw the facebook graphic and my eyes went directly to "Six Speed" Then I picked the #2,3 and 4 horses just to keep my odds realistic. I had not done any research on and knew nothing about the horse "Six Speed" until about 4am on April 28th when I decided to google the horse. I found out that the horse comes from the Brunetti Dugan Stables which was founded by John Brunetti who once owned Hialeah Park. The Kismet: I recently went on a couple dates with a lady whose family also owned the Hialeah racetrack long ago and I blogged about it about a week ago on the kismet page: https://buddyjacobsonmovie.com/kismet.php
As if this was not fascinating enough I found out that Brunetti stables is connected to Dr. John C. Kimmel the son of Caesar Kimmel and grandson of Manny Kimmel. The Brunetti and Kimmel legacy are so intertwined with the Jacobs-Bieber / Jacobs syndicate that one could not or would not have existed without the other....
