Great story about getting to the derby...
 

Not much a poster to this site, so don't know if it belongs here, but thought this was a great read that could be appreciated by all here.

Thought it was terrific.

Nice story indeed! (and welcome to the forum)

A good read for sure.................I remember watching Burl McBride as a jockey at Ak-Sar-Ben. Classy guy...........hope he gets that 'big' one.

I read this as well, but I don't think the author understands the meaning of "odds on"

Thought the same thing...
