Derby Day 2019!!

It’s that day in May we wait for every year.

It’s gonna rain … and that means another year with a muddy track.

Who’s gonna take the Roses??

Since Omaha Beach, the early favorite, has been scratched due to surgery it’s a wide open field.

Baffert has three so it may be Game Winner.

Or is it Roadster? Coming out of the 17th chute, never won, post position??

Or …. your favorite long shot??

You gotta play to win – and if you need a little luck don’t forget to pick up a Bucephalus to keep in your pocket!

Will Exaggerator do it again? I like Desormeaux and their horse (did you know the Black Stallion is Kent Desormeaux’s favorite!) I like Cherry Wine … doesn’t that sound good. And I like the idea of Suddenbreakingnews.

Get yourself a little luck with a Bucephalus of your own … Alexander the Great let him sleep in his tent and you can keep him on your bedside table:)

See you at the races!

American Pharoah!!!

HE did it! The fourth jewel – a triple crown bonus! Six and a half lengths … One of a kind – Classic! Breathless! Pause for two minutes and give the best horse we’ve ever seen his honor.

They said there would never be another triple crown winner. Heart, dedication, talent … and work. LOVE it!
