IT"S DERBY DAY!!!!!!!! Oh happy day, the first Saturday in May!!!!! To me, the is the epitome of strength and beauty, power and grace. A Thoroughbred running is poetry in motion. Today 20 3 year old colts will line up for a run for the roses, the most exciting two minutes in sports!!!! i love to watch them run. The field: 1. Jazil 2. Steppenwolfer 3. Keyed Entry 4. Sinister Minister 5. Point Determined 6. Showing Up 7. Bob and John 8. Barbaro 9. Sharp Humor 10. A.P. Warrior 11. Sweetnorthernsaint 12. Private Vow 13. Bluegrass Cat 14. Deputy Glitters 15. Seaside Retreat 16. Cause to Believe 17. Lawyer Ron 18. Brother Derek 19. Storm Treasure 20. Flashy Bull GO BABY GO We have some excellent bloodlines running today, including Holy Bull, A.P. Indy, Storm Cat and Point Given. The usual suspects are represented at the trainer position as well, with Bob Baffert saddling 3 horses, Todd Pletcher 2, and Barclay Tagg 1. So, put on Y/your best hat, whip up a batch of mint juleps, and enjoy the race!!!!!! MINT JULEP 2 cups sugar 2 cups water Sprigs of fresh mint Crushed ice Early Times Kentucky Whiskey Make a simple syrup by boiling sugar and water together for five minutes. Cool and place in a covered container with six or eight sprigs of fresh mint, then refrigerate overnight. Make one julep at a time by filling a julep cup with crushed ice, adding one tablespoon mint syrup and two ounces of Early Times Kentucky Whiskey. Stir rapidly with a spoon to frost the outside of the cup. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint |

*L* i agree.....did You know that according to the NTRA, no two Thoroughbreds are allowed to have the same name? Leads to some interesting combinations to be sure. It's getting better, tY. Thanks for stopping by my blog
