the Kentucky Derby.

The Kentucky Derby is this Saturday, May 1st and you can see all of the contenders here. I really do not have much knowledge regarding horse racing but I think my favorite is Super Saver. Following closely is Paddy O'Prado (but that is mainly because I think he's pretty).

Komen for the Cure and Kentucky Oaks’ 2009 First Lady of the Oaks, "We won’t soon forget Rachel Alexandra’s thrilling performance in 2009 and the excitement she continues to generate all around the world. Rachel Alexandra exemplifies the spirit and strength of all women fighting this disease, and I’m thrilled she will be wearing the First Lady of the Oaks Crown for 2010."
