Oh, dude, the second place finisher in the derby is called the runner-up. You know, like the person who almost won but didn't quite make it. It's like being the first loser, but hey, at least they tried, right?

Ah, in the world of horse racing, the second place finisher in the derby is called the "runner-up" or sometimes simply referred to as finishing in "second place." It's important to remember that each horse gives its best effort, and every finish is a part of the beautiful story of the race. Just imagine the stunning landscapes and happy little horses racing towards their dreams!

The second place finisher in a horse race, including the derby, is commonly referred to as the "runner-up" or the "second-place finisher." In horse racing terminology, this position is also known as finishing "second" or coming in "second." The runner-up is the competitor who finishes the race in second position, behind the winner and ahead of all other competitors.
