That race was taped off of an Erie cable channel - I'd go back and fourth between that channel, Cubs baseball on WGN, and cartoons back in the day when I idolized the likes of Dawson, Sandberg, Dunston, Maddux, and Steve Stone ... I gave up on the Cubs a long time ago.

The jock on the outside horse is now the best trainer around when it comes to winning those two furlong baby races late in the Santa Anita winter meet.

That is hilarious, didn't notice that was good ole Wesley....

They didn't call him Wesley Wide for nothing.

Guess we got our answer in a BIG way to the above two questions. See you at Siro's, my man. :)

I don't see how this horse is not the Derby favorite and a very very likely winner, despite only the 3 starts. Last year, Curlin in a similar situation had legitimately good horses to deal with- Big Brown has nothing of the sort.

still need to see how he came out of todays race....if he wins the derby (the one on the first Saturday in May) I'll buy ya another 6 beers at Siro's....(not saying that he can't win it)

I named Crimson Comic! :)

Sorry, I know that has very little to do with Big Brown, but as this is probably Crimson's only link to greatness, I had to throw that out there. :P

I will be there, if not for both days then just Saturday (work sucks!). Family commitments are precluding her attendance. Give me a dial...
