Send your name, address to:

The calendar's theme is racing movies, so include your favorite and/or your favorite scene/moment/character from a film with a horse racing theme!
Thanks Steve and Rick! The calendar is always a highlight.

So with the favorite movie, etc that we're including, there's potential to see an image from that film in the calendar? Not that I need an excuse to watch my horse racing movies again, but I can tell my family it's for a good cause. A few things from Seabiscuit, The Black Stallion, and A Day At the Races come to mind. Decisions, decisions.

The calendar is already printed. But what we're doing will contribute to a compilation of favorite scenes to be used on the video presentation during race days.

Thanks to Steve & Rick. My choice was Champions. The movie about Bob Champion, beating Cancer and winning the 1981 Grand National.

Oh cool. I did wonder how there could be time to include them this late in the year. I figured it was more than just sharing with Rick in the privacy of the email, but I couldn't think of what else he'd do with the information. This is a fun idea.

Let it Ride was a classic movie for horse players. Looking elsewhere, my favorite horse racing theme show was an episode of The Odd Couple named "Felix the Horse Player". Oscar was winning big on bets and Felix decided to place a wager. Felix wore his lucky sweater from when he was a kid during the running of the first race he wagered $2 on. They were getting tips from a jockey, there was a scene where Felix and Oscar were a OTB. A classic episode during racings so called Golden Age.
