Can he go the distance with an early lead though? It'll be interesting. <br /><br />Pretty fun week here in Louisville if you've never been before. It's definitely worth the price of admission.

Posted By: <b>Howard W. Rosenberg</b><p>Cap's 1900 book was written by a Chicago horse racing writer and poet named Richard Cary Jr.<br /><br />Cary had the pen name of Hyder Ali. Right after the book was published, Cary told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, "I really thought when I started that the 'Cap' [sic] would be able to reel off the story of his life about as fast as a nimble man would care to write it. It took me just two days to find that was not the case. A day and a half to get the 'Cap' to sit down and the other half day in egging him on. The story had to be literally dragged out of him. The incidents of his baseball career were apparently fresh in his mind, but when it came to actual dates he was all at sea. When he did give a date nine times out of ten it was wrong and had to be corrected later on." By the way, the New York Times said whether Anson "wrote every word in this volume of reminiscences or not[,] the book reads characteristically. The expression is Ansonian."<br /><br />For those who may have been inspired by the thread, the foremost horse racing library in Kentucky is in Lexington, at Keeneland. According to the following link, <a href="http://www.keeneland.com/faq/" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.keeneland.com/faq/</a>, the library is open from 8:30 a.m until 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, except during live racing when the hours change to 8:30 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. Cary has a file there, of course.<br /><br />Cary's two other books are Tales of the Turf; and, 'Rank Outsiders' (1891); and Sporting Ballads, and Other Verse (1903). The library has at least one of them; both are mainly about horse racing.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>steve f</b><p> I saw the movie and consider it a masterpiece, very realistic. It's amazing more frustrated gay folks don't blow their brains out due to society's ignorance. Imagine trying to convince an entire population of rocks that this is an uncontrollable trait. FTR, I'm not homosexual nor did this movie cause me to want to change into one -I'm not strong enough to be gay!.. I apologize for drifting way off topic.

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>If it's a crappy track tomorrow, box Steppenwolfer for a huge payout.<br />Otherwise it's Lawyer Ron and Barbaro in that order.&gt;<br /><br />Well, Barbaro looked great and Steppenwolfer who Laywer Ron beat in the Rebel and Arkansas Derby ran late as usual and got there for the show. Lawyer Ron had a tough trip from out in the 17th position but his jock got him in contending position but he was impeded and boxed in and finsihed a dismal 12th. Oh well, I broke even and I still think he will be tough in the Preakness where there won't be the cavalry charge.<br />Murcer- we always adopt as "our own" horses that spend the entire winter and spring in Hot Springs so to us, Ron is our guy.

Posted By: <b>runscott</b><p>I'm glad to see that since I left, the board became friendlier and more tolerant.<br /><br />In reference to your post below, I'm amazed that more fat dogs don't blow their brains out, given society's intolerance of them...we don't understand that the poor dogs just can't stop eating, but it must be like sniffing rocks trying to convince us. Heck, being an owner of a healthy dog, I've noticed my dog grinning and making fun of these obese dogs and I've put up with it...and even encouraged it once by giving my dog a treat after she pissed on a fat poodle. But I am making amends by writing a book about two 140-lb chihuahuas who only eat McDonalds food (I haven't decided yet if they will be neutered or gay).<br /><br />Seriously Brian, get with reality - Gay is 'in'. I personally don't plan to participate, but my understanding is that the Democrats are planning tax breaks when they get back in power, for anyone who can prove they have had sex with someone of the same gender. <br /><br />"May 6 2006, 2:42 PM <br /><br />Schwartzy calls me "softy" and I only have 11% body fat!<br />We live in a country where 70% of all dogs are overweight!<br />Should I be offended?"<br />

I love Flaubert, especially Madame Bovary...and if they don't like my 6'5" 35-year old, skinny Irish school teacher, I'll be happy to leave them alone...<br /><br />Didn't someone in Luke's squadron say "Stay on target"?

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>It is truly amazing that so few horses which were so media hyped but didn't fare well in the Derby are running in the Preakness. I fully expected another 4 or 5 also-rans from the Derby to enter. With just Derek and Northernsaint going I am truly shocked...
