I Want Revenge!!!

...seems to be the horse to beat in the 2009 Kentucky Derby; a Grade I stakes race for three year-old thoroughbred horses, held annually in Louisville, Kentucky, on the first Saturday in May.

ooooooo my favourite topic.

Is 'I want revenge' the name of the horse or just the way your feeling right now?

Could be both! :yh_rotfl Actually, I believe that success is the best revenge... and if anyone is pathetic enough out there to wish for me to fail, I'll definately have my revenge, big time!

The last time I was at the Kentucky Derby (2005), my horse won... it was named after Sting's son, actually. Yes, that was the main reason I chose it, too... it was a bit of a long shot at 50-1 odds and paid off very well, though. The second largest in payout history at the Kentuck Derby.

This year I also like Pioneer of the Nile and and General Quarters.

Some may like Chocolate Candy, Mr. Hot Stuff, Flying Private, Desert Party or Nowhere to Hide...

I wouldn't have chosen him either for my long shot, but... it certainly paid out, though! A lot of folks bet on that horse, too.
