    I'll go with Take Charge Indy. Yes, I pick horses based on names and I love the Indy 500, so there you go. ;D

    Good bloodlines and it's tough to go against Calvin Borel at CD.

    If we're picking on names, I'll take I'll Have Another.

    You mean you don't watch horse races for the crashes?

    Of course not. There aren't any jet dryers on the track for the jockeys to hit.

    Dullahan is the truth.

    What that truth is ... I don't know.

    I love racing too but that story was eye-opening and horrifying. Had no idea.

    Glad Bodemeister didn't get a bad draw. I like pairing him and Indy up.

    Indy got a great draw.

    Problem is, you're going to get raped on the odds, since CD patrons would bet Borel in this race if he were riding a billy goat.
