Maybe all the people who typed in Foreclosures, typed in Pimlico as well.

But still unexpected.

This Preakness is getting more press than I ever would have expected. Hopefully we get a dry track and a great race (with no injuries of course) and maybe some buzz will carry over to the Belmont and the rest of the year. Racing has traditionally been a "hot item" in recessions, why I have no idea... but we'll take it.

On train to Baltimore right now and very excited for my 13th straight trip to the run for the Black Eyed Susans.

Have a great time and I hope it doesn't rain on you!

Hopefully the race will be so good that rating will sky rocket to #1!

People who don't know the difference between a colt and filly are all asking me the same question. Who's the girl horse running on Saturday? And then, does she have a chance? LOL

our local sports show even asked me to be on to talk about her yesterday and they are usually all basketball this time of year.

They said they've been getting alot of folks emailing and calling asking about the preakness.

i think rachael adds a TON of publicity and excitement for this race.

Not so horrible. Farrah's got terminal cancer and a documentary coming out on tv, Angels and Demons came out yesterday, the Daytime Emmys nominations just got announced, and Beyonce...er...

Ok I just thought of a point of comparison that might help. If you had to pick a backside, Pimlico or Ms. Knowles?
