Planning on attending Super Derby again this year...

Been Gustav "fighting" this week! I work for electric utility here in Louisiana. We had 90% of customers without power on Day 1. 20% still out after Day 4. Gustav created more widespread damage than Andrew (1992) and Lili (2002). In central Louisiana, Gustav did more damage than either Lili or Rita (2005). Katrina did not impact middle part of state (fortunately) in 2005.

Should have all customers that can take service back on grid by next Tuesday. Hope Ike will weaken and avoid Gulf Coast region.

I understand that Mambo in Seattle is committed for Super Derby. Any other horse (or horses) known for this race or undercard?
