HK runner Joy and Fun recovering from a bruised heel...

"He is a trojan - with all the major injuries he has had - a fractured wither, shoulder problems, a broken cannon bone, what else can you throw at him? He is a war horse," said Cruz.

Hope not!

Pulling out my hair trying to figure out how to arrange Bated Breath, Ortensia, Little Bridge, Joy And Fun and Margot Did.

As usual I'm playing Excelebration to beat Frankel although a, haven't had much luck in the past and b, I do like Red Jazz as well.

Can't wait!

Hope the HK kids do well (some tough girls up against them though) and of course best of luck, Mr. Channon.

How about you SS? Are you playing every race? Looking forward to / playing / rooting for anyone in particular?
