Just bumping this back up to the top. Does anyone have any predictions for Saturday's race?

hmmm, just on a glance I like a 1,2,7,8 superfecta box... did you notice that Quinton's Gold Rush is now in New Hampshire?

AAAAAAAAAAAAH! :evil:

I swear, I'm going to find out who that is, string them up by their big toes and beat the ever living daylights out of them. Then I'm going to drop about a million carpenter ants all over them.

I've had to fix Smarty Jones 5! DAYS in a row. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I WON'T GIVE MILES ANY DAMN MONEY!

I have to root for Edgerrin... just because. It would be nice to have an Indiana bred kick some butt in the Indiana Derby!

Brass Hat over Pollard's Vision, Edgerrin for third

hehehe ... yeah, okay, fire ants.

I can even throw in some scorpions and brown recluse.

It just proves you haven't been in the deep South lately, S. But perhaps you should just strap the pest to a live oak down here and let the mosquitoes do their thing. After two hurricanes leaving puddles of water around everywhere, we've got a state full of 'em, and they LOVE tourists....

ooooooooo .... West Nile.

No, my out of state travel is limited to the time I drove from Iowa to California during college (and sleeping through most of the drive due to a concussion).

Never mind West Nile; we've got so many blasted mosquitoes right now that I don't think they'd leave enough blood in your victim's body by dawn for West Nile (or much of anything else) to matter. Besides, if blood loss didn't do the trick, the troll just might scratch itself to death.

My, I'm feeling fiendish today...look what nearly eight years of working in a prison will do to a once-normal (sort of) mind!

Yeah, Mahubah. Let's send her to Floriday. Sounds like you could keep her in line, should she show up causing trouble in your neck of the woods!

Pounding down the stretch, leaving Jessi P behind.

and in the mean time, I'm making like Secretariat

This is ridiculous. :lol:

Jessi, did y'all settle on a name yet?

Nope. You wanted to run, I'm not your trainer. Got my own race to worry over.

Hey, I'm running with a yanked achilles tendon, extra weight, and I'm definitly not on my home track.

Besides, you're not even on the board! You're some kind of hidden secret entry, or something.
