The winner was Beverly & Robert B. Lewis's Silver Charm, a four-year-old gray colt trained in the United States by Bob Baffert and ridden by Gary Stevens. Silver Charm's victory was the first in the race for his owner, trainer and jockey.

Silver Charm was named American Champion Three-Year-Old Male Horse for 1997 when he won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes. Before being shipped to Dubai he won San Fernando Stakes in January and the Strub Stakes in February.

gollark: No, you would keep one counter per client.
gollark: You can keep a counter on each side, increment it when a message is sent/received, and ignore any with the wrong value, or just send a time (encrypted) and complain if it's more than a second or so off.
gollark: Replay attacks are easy enough to deal with.
gollark: Possibly. But you run into a similar issue to the symmetric encryption thing: what if someone steals a device with access to it and/or reads the keys off?
gollark: If you trust all the devices which you'll want accessing the banking server, you could use symmetric encryption.
