i'm really surprised CE is as low as he is. 2-1 is frikken low.

the media coverage of his derby tough trip and awesome race because of it is being pushed hard.

that said. gl in your bet

Jocko, I just read your story. I'm exhausted enough for both of us!

Thanks for sharing.

I really though CE was home free and would have been counting my money at the top of the stretch. Tough beat.

That was brutal Jocko. You're a class guy and I was rooting for you. Hope you had some backup cash on the winner. Looking forward to hearing more about your experience.

As brutal as the finish was this is still a terrific story. Thanks for sharing it with us all Jocko.

Horrible beat. I lost $500, you lost $50k+. Still think Classic Empire was the best horse.
