Let's make this birthday one to remember.

93 years old (Born on August 19, 1931)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Willie Shoemaker! With 8,833 victories under your belt—or should we say saddle—you've certainly galloped into history. Your incredible 40-year career has left hoofprints that no jockey could ever fill.

From thrilling finishes at the Kentucky Derby to countless photo-finish wins, you've shown us all how it's done—fast and with style. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy, and perhaps a cake shaped like a winner's circle; after all those races won by inches, you deserve every sweet victory today!

Here's wishing you another year of happiness that's as timeless as your legacy!
