The Kentucky Derby ~ the Greatest Horse Race in the World!

April 19, 2010

I have loved The Kentucky Derby for as long as I can remember. Being a lover of Horses and Fashion - it's a perfect combination! Our family watches it, faithfully, every year on TV. I love the personal stories behind the horses, trainers, jockies, etc... and I love choosing my favorite - just for fun!

I will try to POST my favorite horse before the "Call to POST" - and we'll see how close I get this year. I'm not sure if I've ever chosen a winner, but I do remember my Mother choosing Barbaro - and we just absolutely loved that horse.
