I'm not Nelly... but I'll tell you, my horse came in like, 12th or something terrible. I guess he felt more like a jog than a sprint! Nobody at our party had picked the winner or the place horse, so the guy who picked the horse to show won the pool! I hope Nelly did better!

Loc: Within stray mortar fire of DC

I think my horse might still be running. *shame* He came in 11th overall. So sad. The jockeys were not even happy with the outcome. It's clear the best horse didn't win. The winning horse actually bumped my horse towards the start and sent him into the rail. Stoopid race.

I did win like $96 on the horse who came in 3rd, tho, (I hedged my bets bigtime), so there's ONE ticket I can go redeem, anyway. In all I bet $220 and lost $124 total with my one win. *sigh!* Guess I didn't hedge enough. Oh well, that's why they call it a horse race!

Anyway, so the Preakness is in 2 weeks in like, my back yard! I'm hoping to recoup some of my losses there. Tee heee.
