Flashback
 

This Baffert colt won his debut at Hollywood Park on Saturday.

Going back all the way to 1990 ... just six horses have started their career in Southern California and went on to win the Kentucky Derby. '97 Silver Charm, '98 Real Quiet, '99 Charismatic, '00 Fusaichi Pegasus, '05 Giacomo, and '12 I'll Have Another.





Amazingly, Aaron Hesz apparently failed to uncover I'll Have Another and Charismatic...as he did not spend his one future book wager per year on them.

Hesz with Derby future book wagers since 1997:

4-for-16 (25% winners) and an ROI of $34.25

That is a ton of redboarding in one paragraph, holy cr*p.

Who is offering that prop?

Looking at the some sites that do offer kentucky derby future bets. Flashdance wasnt even listed yet.

sportsbook.ag

He just won his career debut on Saturday.

Regarding the prop bet by first letter of name ...The letter A would have been a complete cinch in the Affirmed and Alydar year.

so if this bet was done in vegas, what do you tell the teller...."$100 to win on Flashdance"?

I assume you would ask to be quoted for odds on Flashback.

They would start him at 150/1 and you'd bet.

Actually, this is not entirely true.

I was kidding around with him via IMs once and asked him who he was going to win with in the future book this year, and he, very jokingly, said "Charismatic!".

The dude is a GOD!

I thought he had Monarchos in the future wagers as well.

I think he's cashed so many, that he's starting to forget them.

Flashdance?

The Mid 80's had to friggen suck.

In honor of Helicopter11:

IDK . . .

nothin wrong with those legs.

and with the new system for graded points to get in the derby the future wager is even more sketchy..imo

And that was the biggest grossing R rated film of its year (beating out the one with the boiled bunny).

In some of the shots, her dancing double is a dude.

I'm thinking about making a future wager on Shakin' It Up. Unlike Hesz, I'm only going to redboard having Giacomo in the first pool, who I believe paid less than he did on Derby Day. :rolleyes:

The mid 80s kicked ass every way imaginable.

Royal Delta is the 5-1 favorite in Breeders Cup Classic 2013

I heartily agree............(well at least for how much I remember)....:p

Flashback is now 50-1

I don't know; I just looked up the top Billboard hits of 1985. Let's have a walk down memory lane, shall we?

Billboards top Hits of 1985

1. Say You, Say Me - Lionel Ritchie Hello? This is not what I'm looking for.
2. We Are The World - USA for Africa Right. The US's "f*ck you, Band Aid, Americans can do a benefit song, too, and we'll do it BETTER. Except it won't be.
3. Careless Whisper - Wham! Back when we were still pretending George Michael was straight.
4. Can't Fight This Feeling - REO Speedwagon This song makes me crawl along the floor. To escape it.
5. Money For Nothing - Dire Straits Okay, this is a great song.
6. Shout - Tears For Fears The "Hey Jealousy" of its year. You COULD NOT ESCAPE IT.
7. Broken Wings - Mr. Mister How many bad metaphors can one song hold?
8. I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigner Sorry Foreigner; I'm not going to show you. Because this is a terrible song.
9. The Power Of Love - Huey Lewis & the News "Don't need no credit card to ride this train" BECAUSE YOU CAN PAY CASH FOR TRAIN TICKETS. JESUS CHRIST, HUEY.
10. Everybody Wants To Rule The World - Tears For Fears Better than "Shout," anyway.
11. We Built This City - Starship For this song alone, the entire decade of the 1980s needs to apologize. Oh, Grace Slick, why? Why?
12. St. Elmos Fire (Man In Motion) - John Parr I made fun of this song all the time until I found out it's actually about a paraplegic athlete. Then I felt like an a**hole.
13. Everything She Wants - Wham! Okay, maybe this song is even worse than We Built This City
14. Heaven - Bryan Adams "When I'm lying here in your arms, I'm finding it hard to believe we're in Heaven" WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN? He's dead and he's trapped in eternity with this person?
15. A View To A Kill - Duran Duran If there was ever a band that just strung words together and called them lyrics, it was Duran Duran. And yes, I had their poster on my wall. Shut up.

I was only 6 years old in 1985 and I knew that "Money for Nothing" was an all time great song.

I'm also pretty sure I knew George Micheal didn't like girls.
I was a pretty sharp lil dude... riding around in my parents IRoc ( t-tops out) with the rat tail flowing.

Ok, ok, now I remember................this list is incredibly pathetic I'll admit.

And we haven't even brought up "Get out of My Dreams (Get Into My Car)."

At least she left Air Supply alone:D

Leave Billy Ocean out of this, he didn't hurt any of you damn people. :o

It's possible, though unconfirmed, that I may have been known to sing along to "Even the Nights Are Better" at some unspecified time and place, though rumor has it that it was a public place.

Speaking of which, there is a hilarious literal video version of "Making Love out of Nothing at All" I'll post it in Esoteric.

My brother (R.I.P.) played Air Supply non-stop in our room growing up. NON FREAKING STOP.:wf

That is the best post of 2012!!!

Missed work and out of Sham:

Out of Derby, full recovery expected.

sorry he's out of the derby. why didn't Gomez switch to the right hand while it was still a hoss race ? If someone told me 3 years ago Kevin Krigger was gonna win the Santa Anita Derby, i would have tried to steal their weed connection.

see that little ****** with the earring and the make up
oh yeah that's his own hair
that little ****** has a big jet airplane
that little ****** is a millionaire


all time great song ?

i can't wait to bang the bongos like a chimpanzee.

song sucks just like dire straits. if you could sit through a whole concert of them you should get a purple heart. a bonus medal for staying awake the whole time.

just saw that flashback is off the derby trail with a chip.

Did you by chance see it here, about 3 posts back?... :p
