He simply wants to be able to experience having a horse in the Derby knowing there almost certainly will never be another chance for him. It's as simple as that and I doubt any one of us would feel differently if the opportunity came our way.

I don't blame them at all. If I had enough money to blow, I'd buy HomeboyKris and run him myself while I watch from the infield. Everyone knows the rules (except Mandella) so too friggin bad if you get left out.

Given the state of the potenial field, does it look like we will have any coupled betting interests?

I'm not familar enough with local rules but it seems like Rule and Super Saver would be most likely and what about Ice Box and Jackson Bend (if he gets in).

The Derby no longer permits coupled entries.
