derby 'bookend' contest
 

we talked about something like this on another thread, so what the heck...if there is interest that is.

'derby first and last' contest. pick the winner, and the last place horse. all picks in this thread please, prior to the post parade.

put up a first, and a last place choice. alt allowed for a scratch only.

in the event that more than one person gets both correct, i will have a tiebreak (names in a hat!).

the winner will get a book about all the derby winners from aristides to barbaro. it's hardcover, just came out. pics, write-up on each derby winner...

if no one picks both--closest to getting both will be the winner.

fun idea Deb:)

It should be easy to figure out who the "back end" of the bookend will be now, since that horse will be running!

Hick Do you mean...
 

Toothless-berg :D

I can't (well not really :D ) believe she is gonna run this horse...there! :eek:

But Hick....
 

That Bluegrass was just what they were lookin for? :rolleyes:

I'm just afraid when he starts backing up in the stretch, he'll bother other horses that are finishing good.

Street Sense comes to mind
