Thanks, Jim!

Proof positive I'm almost totally out of touch this spring!

I'll try

Nyquist, across the board 3 - 1

Exaggerator, place and show 8 - 1

Suddenbreakingnews - show (long shot) 20 - 1, just because I love the name.

Pretty good site.

Derby Color



Beautiful day for the Derby. Hats, hats and more hats!



I'm sure Larry and Dannilyn - who should be official Derby mascots by now, will make their appearance. I'll try to be back with a pic when that happens.

and then .... the most important part ... the horses and the race. Thinking it's at 6:00 pm, EDT.

If you want to take a chance on the winner, browse Jumby's list and speak up. You could win KP.

Yay ...... Jim won with Nyquist and Gun Runne

I won with Nyquist and Exaggerator.

Dex won with Nyquist.

We did okay.

Here's the best post race article I've read (NY Times). You get good information plus the feel and flavor of the whole race. Don't miss.

Makes me remember my college days when we used to go and sit in the end field. Sentimental for sure.

Yes they are both wonderful and take us back to a time gone by and fondly remembered, at least for one day a year.

Here is this year's Derby appearance of Dannilyn and Larry. She's a very pretty little girl. I've seen their interviews and he seems to be doing a good job raising her.
