My passion for horses pretty much competes with my passion for politics. This is my favorite sporting event, particularly since the Trail Blazers imploded making basketball just a past-time instead of an obsession.
I haven't been doing my reading up on the horses this year though, since I've been researching moderate Republican senators. So what do we know? Is Bellamy Road everything they're saying--a potential triple crowner? I hate the thought of Steinbrenner winning this. And what about Zito?! Five horses in the race--that's astounding.
So, what other horses should we be looking at? Which are your picks? Inform me!
