The only disaster today is this crazy Cory Lidle story. I don't know the attraction these guys have to these little planes that are death traps. Very sad.

I had him too. I thought he was the winner and then BANG he hits a wall and I throw my ticket in my pocket.
I had a pretty significant bet on Spanish Chestnut. I havent been that confident coming into the far turn in a long time. Thought for sure I was cashing. |

Very tragic Randall and I dont begin to try and understand what guys do with millions of dollars and a need for excitement with something so dangerous. I remember the JFK jr tragedy and thought why would a guy like this do something this dangerous? My brother is a licensed pilot and no he doesnt do it for a living, its his hobby. I wish he wouldnt. |

I'm glad you didn't but its still in poor taste and i wish I could edit the thread title. A bunch of horses quitting in the lane is quite insignificant compared to a 34 year old man with a child dying in a horrible crash. I have a flying phobia and only fly when completely necessary. I've driven to Ky and back for the Derby every year since 1994 with the exception of 99 when I couldnt go and 2003 when I flew. I will be heading down the highway for the Breeders Cup shortly, right in the ole Honda. I always thought that the moments before a crash would be the worst thing, when you would be plunging with the knowledge that you are about to die in a fiery ball and that there is nothing you can do about it. All crashes get me shaken, just reading about them. |

I bet Spanish Chestnut on Saturday. He looked very strong halfway through the race. I thought I had a winner, but he stopped very badly in the stretch.
