What happened? I'm at the parents' house, and the 3-year-old girl my stepmom babysits insists on "Wall-E" instead of racing. I told her she was an affront to the degenerate gamblers in the household. She was unimpressed.

Heh. My stepmom is trying, but the kid won't doze. My toddler finally yelled himself to sleep (he hates napping) in the other room, so I can't go watch TV in there, either. He's a terrible handicapper. Last year he picked Archarcharch to win.

oh my gosh, a toddler? whew, better you than me. my youngest is 20-the house is so peaceful these days.

There's a wicked looking thunderstorm cell moving across southern Indiana, looking like it's making a beeline for Louisville. Maybe 2 hours out. It's so isolated it almost looks like an anomaly. Hopefully it'll break up soon.

One stakes record earlier and now a track record....

I was really impressed with the race Fort Larned ran.

[Sightseek]

He'll probably win after I say this but how is a horse like the 6 shorter than the 10?

Did I just read they're evacuating the infield because of the severe weather? I reckon they don't want another situation like what happened at that concert in Indiana last year.

Yep. On a delay.

I needed her to run second, but St. John's River got up.

Juanita won.

Thanks (and thanks, slotdirt, too, for the description).

Locked horns with Juanita at the top of the stretch and faded to third. Didn't look like the horse we saw at CD last Oaks day or even the horse that cruised in the Apple Blossom.
