Default city zip 2001 BC

Happened to be watching HRTV to kill some time and they were rerunning the 2001 BC Mile. I noticed City Zip in the post parade and I thought this will be fun. He led em for about 5 furlongs then succumbed. I felt like I was watching Pal. Can't wait to see his next effort.

Wow! Didn't realize he ran an 80 BRIS speed fig in his last race before the layoff. If he can run back to that vs. these, he's got a good shot to hit the board.

Go get 'em Pal!

I told my 5th grade class all about Pal and his upcoming race ("If there are 8 furlongs in a mile, and Pal runs 1 1/16ths of a mile, how many furlongs has he run?"). I think I have 18 new converts to horse racing! Attached are a few of the good luck notes the kids gave me on the way out the door today. Too cute!

That's awesome. I think horse racing is a great way to improve kids' math skills, since you have to think in something other than base ten, what with miles being divided into eight furlongs and 12 seconds being basically the base number from which you work out how fast a furlong went.

The gambling part of it is good for learning math, too, but I imagine parents might have issues about that.
