Barely had his foot on the gas

Big Brown by 5 1/4 lengths. Looks like the best chance in a long time for a triple crown winner.

And, my apologies to the Yooj, as Affirmed was '78, and Seattle Slew was '77. I don't know why I always want to put Seattle Slew right in front of Spectacular Bid ('79). Maybe it's an alliteration thing.

In other news, I'm sure by the end of this summer, my face is going to be synonymous with the phrase, "homicidal driving."

It was so nice yesterday to be at the cabin painting in the silence. It was even better catching fish (one bass, two nice sized bluegill) without hearing that jump-around thump-thump-thump sound of ghetto cruisers.
