Since we are always looking for horse, that will soon be a year older, going towards the Derby, my inclination is DelMar. Not sure how many Derby entries ever came out of the Bob Hope but . . . ya never know.
Thoughts, other ideas?

I remember Slim Pickens, but can't remember a whole lot of movies that he was in. He was in Doctor Strangelove with Peter Sellers and George C. Scott and I think he was also in One Eyed Jacks with Marlon Brando and Karl Malden which I thought was a decent "shoot-em-up." Kind of a memorable scene In Strangelove when he rode the bomb down like a bucking bronco.
Aside from reminiscing about Slim Pickens, I don't care which racetrack. Del Mar seems like a difficult place to play, but maybe that's just me and I am no good judge of which races or which tracks I play best. Lose at those I think I'll win and win as those I think I'll lose.
