Barbaro and the ‘Second Jew’

There was an interesting correction in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune regarding Saturday’s Preakness Stakes, where the favored horse, Barbaro (pictured) suffered two leg fractures:

A caption on Page C7 Sunday with a photo of Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro should have said Barbaro will try to win the second jewel of the Triple Crown on Saturday.

Here’s the original error:

Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro grazed in the paddock Wednesday. He will try to win the second jew of the Triple Crown on Saturday. [Emphasis added.]
