Neither. :D Just loved the Bears since I was a wee youngin many, many moons past.

No, but I've been to several other tracks. Went to the Derby once when I lived in Kentucky.

hahaha

Which tracks have you been to? Friend and I are thinking bout doing a lil roadtrip to tracks around the midwest.

Churchill Downs

Keeneland

Kentucky Downs

Ellis Park

They're all in Kentucky technically, though Ellis Park is actually on the Indiana side of the Ohio River...

I went to the opening night races, poo was great. I think I will be going to the Derby if I can get my hook up.

Pants on Fire has a redheaded woman jockey.

How can you not make a play on that?

I hope to go to the Derby before I leave this Earth.

Went to the local tracks opening day yesterday. Racked up a good $122 hope that carries over today.

Top pick for me is Midnight Interlude, Bob Baffert and Victor Espinoza. Baffert has been my favorite trainer for a while now and won with him yesterday in Oaks with Plum Pretty.

Looks like the weather is gonna hold up.

so much HYPE

Well I guess Animal Kingdom likes all surfaces!!!

Questions coming in were that this was his first race on the Dirt and he took really well to it.

Now that is a fuging closer!!!

[tarheelblue89]

What I wrote about Animal Kingdom "First time on dirt, apparently has been taking well to it int he workouts. Comes huge around last turn, has an English trainer.....must take a look"

And of course I didn't.
