  Thought I heard one of the favs scratched earlier this week?
• ts1227

  

  Pretty sure the horse (Eskendereya, the original favorite) scratched early enough that they had another entry replace the empty slot.
  
  
  EDIT: Yeah... Eskendereya and Endorsement scratched, and were replaced by Make Music For Me and Backtalk

  That was it...couldn't remember the name.

  Homeboykris is the most gangster horse name I've ever seen. I might lay down a few bucks on him just because of that.
• enigmaax

  Gonna be there. I'm thinking Super Saver.
• ts1227

  

  Super Saver has Calvin Borel on board too. He took a 50:1 horse (Mine That Bird) to the Roses last year. Who knows?

  looks like it could be anybody's race after the draw....
  
  too bad i'm going to miss it, got 2 games on Saturday on the road and don't think we'll be back in time

  I don't know the first thing about horse racing, but I heard that they are expecting a bunch of rain (5 inches), so I would think that would have a huge effect on the race.
