Already 33 listings on e-Bay from the Churchill giveaway on Saturday. One of the sellers has nine listings.

The autographed ones are selling over $75.

Rumor is that NYRA was going to give out Ramon Dominguez bobble heads, but Gales single handily put the kabosh on that.

Derby-winning, in the public eye (on Letterman, Leno), comes across as a really nice guy on TV - see what racing could do with a little general public marketing? I doubt it's hardcore racing fans purchasing the bobbleheads. Could be wrong.
