Ky Derby

As I was just about to leave the Naples-Fort Myers Dog Track (thats my betting home) a gentleman asked me who I liked in the race.  As I had much more grey hair than he did (he mentioned that I had probably been doing the horses longer than he) he thought I might have a good opinion.  I told him who I liked in the race and at the end of the conversation I told him one more thing.  Watch out for Borel.  He is the most dangerous jockey out there on long shots.  Remember Denis of Cork last year?  I had the trifecta last year only because I put Borel (not Denis) in my tri.  I did not have the tri this year but I did a win saver bet on Borel (not the Bird).  The track sucked on Saturday and on a track like that, with the low quality of horses that ran in the Derby (I had said before, it was the survivors, not the best horses that were runing) anything could happen.  Wicked Style, we forgive you.  Please don't go to Santa Anita to sing.  We aren't worried about you appearing nude, we just think you don't have the voice for the Trashmen Classic "Everybody know's that the bird is the word."  See you all at the Preakness as this should draw a much better field than years past.

Lost Code - I'm running late (tomorrow) with my recap, but I appreciate that you're letting me off the hook. However my friends and family are not quite as forgiving.....that probably should tell me something. By the way I finished the Run for the Roses in 7942nd place with a total score of 131 points.
