I like to follow races for fun.Don’t know anything about horses, don’t even like them. I go by the names- what sounds like a winner( yeah, typical female thing to do, I know). My dad always chose the gray horses, just because.
This is a LOT of horses to run at one time, tho.
Here are my picks- for the record:(choosing 3 because there are so many)
Pyro
Smooth Air and
Recapturetheglory.
I consider myself a winner if any of those 3 win, place or show.It’s always fun to see.
Let’s see if any Freeper can pick the winner!

Wasn’t there another horse that’s supposed to be real good but didn’t get picked for some reason? Not enough wins or something like that?
