An interesting article in the sports section of todays New York Times by racing
writer Joe Drape.
The article discusses your current Derby fave, his owners, his trainer, his
tender hooves.
I would love to be able to include a link to the article, but this is beyond my
computer competence. (Hey I\'m still bothering Verizon to give me my rotary
phone back)

Great read. Thanks for posting. The fallout of a smashing Big Brown Derby Victory as the 5-2 favorite on this web board will be almost as exciting as the Derby itself. Being a Northern California native, I\'ve had deep seeded resentments towards the New York media bias in sports for many years. Are the Mets really on ESPN again tonight? JESUS!
However - I simply can\'t see another horse getting within 5 lengths of BB on May 3rd so I\'m suiting up and jumping all in with Tricky and the IEAH boys. If BB staggers home last I will still feel I bet the best and fatest horse in the race and didn\'t obsessively look for something that simply wasn\'t there. Been there done that way too many times.
Good article. Thanks.
