They are really going out on a limb.

I'll give the winner a million bucks if his rider carries a seltzer bottle instead of a whip.

I'd insure that bet for $100, because there's about a 1 in 10,000 chance of that happening.

what i'd like them to do is replace a jockey in the derby with that little chihuaha (sp?) that used to star in the taco bell commercials. perhaps on a pletcher horse.

dam thats cold.....

typically i dont really consider riders, but is the derby one of those races that having a pressure rider might make a difference? I guess maybe not, stuart elliot won the dang thing.

Trivia time.

Without Googling, who was the voice for the Chihuaha in those commercials?

Somewhat known actor, at least in a TV show (comedy), and a movie spinoff from the show...

Isn't it one of the guys from Reno 911? Can't think of his name, but I know the voice...
