24-1 horse won. The one I was calling for, Renegade, took second by a nose. Both came up from the back of the pack to win and place. Show was another longshot.

Fun to watch when the long shot wins. I don't gamble and I know squat about horse racing. I watched a documentary on getting a horse into the Derby. Holy sheeet $$$$..
Ocala Fl. here just up the road from me. Home to champion race horses. A few of the Derby winners were born here and ate the grass. That was it for those superstitious horse people. Eat the grass here when their real young then off to Kentucky or wherever. Those wins literally stopped development in Ocala and kept it with beautiful huge horse farms.
Huge fields of green with fences that cost more than I make in a lifetime. You can see the George Steinbrenner estate and horse farm from Rt. 75.. Old George's mansion is like a giant hotel.
