Post You open up some ole' boxes and....

Getting ready for a garage sale next week and......

I opened up several boxes that had been sealed for many years..

I came upon some uncashed autotote tix for the 1991 Florida Derby..

I'm assuming that they are NG, but anyone remember who finished 2nd & 3rd? It looks like I keyed on Link in the race, but I had a couple of exacta and triple boxes with Fly So Free...

Also, I found my old color slides from the 1970's at Belmont Park - I've got some nice photos of Dahlia and Honorable Miss with Bill Shoemaker and Angel Cordero and Pat Day coming down the runway to the race track. I'll have to get these converted to digital....

This could be the single coolest redboard post ever!

Thanks, Steve..

It looks like I had the 3-6-7 boxed and the 6 win/place (Howie Tesher got me again)

How could I have left out Strike the Gold ??? Well, hind sight is 20-20-20 (20 years later)......

The only thing missing is a paper cut from the ticket.
