I'm sure I'll be knocked out in the first round, but I'll try as well

I'll be waiting 1:25 before Gomez gets the #4 past the 4th place horse if he does at all.Risky Race.

I'm in.

Hope I can still say that tomorrow ... and maybe a few weeks from now.
Good luck to the DT gang. Somebody get this one.

Makes me nervous, too. I took the #5. With the #1 scratched, I only have to beat a single horse, but with 20 min to post, my horse is the longest odds.

Didn't get to watch it. (Had to watch a plumber trying to unclog a kitchen sink instead!) Was it close at least?
