It's Derby time again! Let's Run for the Roses!

[tennisnut]

Hi everyone,
I introduced this game during the last Derby and I had such a fun time with it that I decided to do it again.

I will list the horses that will be in this years' Derby and you can vote/bet on the horse that you think will win. Unfortunately it is your tough luck if the horse you choose scratches ( drops out ) before the race.
To keep with the board "theme" I will send the winners a pin ( don't get too excited).
The person who chooses the horse that comes in last will also get a pin .

FINE PRINT: Please no more than 3 people per horse. I don't have that many pins!

oh , I am not telling the odds. Just have fun and bet on a great name.

Hi T: How are you and your DH (you know, the Pittsburgh guy) doing.

I always liked the Buggies----The Flat Trackers run too fast for me.

"Dollar Bill" is my choice.

Is 1st prize a trip to Lex----I will even take another trip to Murray, KY. People in Kentucky are great.


Go"DOLLAR BILL" in the #10 hole.

Some of the names just jumped out at me, my favorite was fifty stars, but I think (being the disneyholic that I am) that I should take the one that most reminds me of WDW.

I will chose A(nnual) P(assport) Valentine



( I just love these smiles)
