A week and a few hours

Regular blog readers beware, the next week of posts will only be about one thing, THE DERBY! Random blog readers, welcome back.

So, early bets to worry about. Of course, the old 3-6-9 bet. And this year for the first time in quite a while, the Baffert-Lukas bet. That of course is an exacta bet on the Baffert trained horse Pioneerof the Nile and the Lukas trained horse Flying Private. The last time I made that bet as a throwaway it paid $1300 on a $2 exacta. And guess who had it. The why is because I lost some money when they kept winning races and I didn't bet on them. So, bet the exacta just in case.

In other news, Quality Road has another quarter crack but Ian is on the case so he will probably run. Ian is a former Plainfield curler who is the best in the business at fixing hooves.

More as the week progresses.
Later,
JH
