The Florida Derby

Today's the day. The following are the entries for today's race. Our hometown hero is a horse named Birdbirdistheword trained by Ken McPeek. Bird was bred by Randy Edwards, who is the accountant for OBS Sales Company. Although I don't like to root for McPeek, I am rooting for Randy Edwards.

I tried to find out if ESPN televises the Florida Derby...it doesn't look like it. But I noticed today is also the Dubai World Cup, which is on ABC at 2:30. Do you watch FL Derby on TVG?

I have no idea why it posted twice! I got duplicate Stable Mail's today too. Maybe an internet glitch that we need to ask Al Gore about! Bird didn't run too well, Scat Daddy won, Notional second, and Chelokee third. I missed the race because I was off taking x-rays with Dr. Kevin Harbin. I think Sarah Kate will foal tonight or tomorrow.
