Default Letterman 'Derby' Top 10..

Courtesy of my pal Rick ('Derby73') in the 'Nati.. Originally from Louisville and committed name of every year's Derby winner in history to memory as a child! His first Derby at the Downs was 1973...


Top Ten Signs Your Horse Will Not Win The Kentucky Derby

10 For starters, no horse with three legs has ever won the derby

9 Instead of "Win, place or show," he's favored to "Wheeze"

8 Easily spooked by crowds, other horses, jockeys and dirt

7 Las Vegas offering side bets on whether he'll make it out of the trailer

6 He's on his fifth bucket of mint juleps

5 He may be a zebra

4 Named "Just Desserts" because that's all he eats

3 Trainer was also responsible for getting the Yankees into shape

2 Jockey using the riding crop to whack himself

1 The night before the race seen out late partying with Paris Hilton

At times. Mostly a good glass of cabernet at night and a few beers on the weekends. I splurged on Derby day and had a few mint juleps... only a few.

I didn't enjoy many of them, but that one was good enough for me.
