Looks like I'm alone in it today. I picked (for no particular reason)
1. Point Determined
2.Barbaro
3.Bob and John :)
If anyone is curious, the unoffical standings were :
Win:Barbaro
Place:Bluegrass Cat
Show:Steppenwolfer
Barbaro just kept pulling away. Wow. I had a $5 bet each on Sinister Minister, Keyed Entry and Point Determined to win. Oh well. :laugh They were all in it for awhile.
I was watching, Star!!! We were at my mom's for dinner, but interrupted dessert to all go watch it. I hope Barbaro goes all the way and wins the Triple Crown. Amazing story about the trainer and the plane crash.Quote:
