i don't usually join in these cluster f's but since you did write back a long thoughtful response to an email from some anonymous intenet doofus (me) back in 2002 i can sincerely say...happy birthday.
anyone can be good at what they love to do. very few can communicate so well that passion. even fewer make time for noob's. you're a good man, steve. hope this is a great year for you.

Thanks so much to everyone for your birthday wishes and kind words. I appreciate it. As for Mr. Byk posting that it was my birthday, I will have to escort him to the wood shed the next time I see him.

One other matter that needs correcting. Although I appreciate Steve's words regarding my contributions to his becoming a racing journalist, it was his extreme passion, hard work, and knowledge of every aspect of the sport that got him to where he is now. I may have opened the door a crack, but he knocked it off its hinges busting in. OK, that's enough mush for one day.

Happy Birthday. I enjoy your writing. Just one question though, why don't you do some type of list for the Kentucky Oaks and the fillies? Obviously it wouldn't get as many hits, but maybe an Oaks Dozen?

Unfortunately, you pretty much answered your own question -- not enough hits. Our editors want to concentrate their weekly features on the Derby, but I do agree with you that the Oaks seems to get forgotten every year. If Rags to Riches and Magnificence both wind up going, you'll see a major surge of interest for sure. But Magnificence is pretty far behind, so I wouldn't think that's going to happen, although you never know.
