I thought Cornishman would make Mindframe work for it today. Mindframe might be the real deal.

Don't jinx it!
That being said, last night ... TikTok randomly showed me TWO videos with the song Forever Young playing randomly and I haven't heard that song in forever is it a sign?

I'm going down to Santa Anita and I probably should put my bets in before I have a couple of Makers' Marks. (Not really a fan of mint juleps but Bourbon is a must on the day.) Probably put a couple of bucks on Forever Young and Stronghold (California loyalist here) and who knows who else.
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

Long day, the last goes at a dusky 6:45pm, enjoy!Diver52 wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 12:25 pm I'm going down to Santa Anita and I probably should put my bets in before I have a couple of Makers' Marks.

p.s. Don't they have any Woodford Reserve?
I've found it easier to tear up tickets at 8/1 instead of 8/5.

TBH I forget which one they feature! I'm not picky about Bourbon but I do have firm views on Scotch!stark wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 12:34 pmLong day, the last goes at a dusky 6:45pm, enjoy!Diver52 wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 12:25 pm I'm going down to Santa Anita and I probably should put my bets in before I have a couple of Makers' Marks.

Sometimes when I see Mike Repole interact with Todd Pletcher I think they're about to kiss.
Hoping the weather stays good but they are expecting thunderstorms a bit before post time.

We met Larry Demeritte today with my mom. He gave us some West Saratoga items, I will cherish them forever. He recognised my cancer ribbon I wear always. He told me he knows cancer very well too. We had a little chat that ended up with me crying because of how down-to-earth and kind this man is. If there is a greater power, let this man have a Derby win. I cannot think of anyone more deserving.

What a beautiful post and experience. I feel the same- even a top 5 finish would be great.stelladaniella wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 6:03 pm We met Larry Demeritte today with my mom.
