I don't care if the ambulance and the outriders pass them coming down the stretch... I don't care if the drunks in the infield that try to keep up with the horses actually beat them to the finish line... I don't care if they said my horse were the "worst horse to ever look through the bridle"... Mrs. Genter laughs instead of cries... Carl Nafzger exclaims that he hates everyone around him... Bob Lewis is heard to utter a derogatory obscenity... Jenine Sahadi and Bob Baffert are seen holding hands... the Stanford Band has to be negotiated in the final furlong... the network switches to Heidi as they enter the stretch... and Andy Beyer gives the race a -0... my ultimate dream as a breeder would be realized to see a horse I bred cross that line first.

Sam-

You truly are a heretic.

C'mon, it's THE DERBY! AKA one of the greatest traditions in the wide world of sports and a clear No. 1 on the American Racing calendar.

By the way, the day after I post on here saying too much emphasis is being put on speed figures, the first assignment I was given today at work was to write a story about how the various figure makers rated the Derby.

LOL

And this is news to you? :wink: Come on, it's not like I haven't told you that before. You boys couldn't even drag my ass to a tourny and you think the DERBY is going to make me weak in the knees :lol:

I feel for you.

Did I hear right, Giacomo only got a 100 for that effort? Damn, I missed it by 2 points.
