Who's watching? The horses don't kneel at the anthem. 👍 Little bit of normalcy coming back. I like Kentucky, always have. 'Been through that Ford plant 4 or 5 times. There WAS a member on here that was gonna organize a THF bourbon tour.  Wait, maybe that was me just wishing he would.

Bourbon Tour - Sounds like a job for TexasLefty. I bet his money is on Bourbonic today. Give me Hot Rod Charlie and Rock Your World in an exacta box if anyones at the track right now.

Saw this earlier and I vaguely remember a story about one of these girls. UAE Sheik kidnapping and imprisoning daughters.

The horses don't kneel at the anthem. 👍 Horses have too much class to kneel during the anthem. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/05/full-19470-293183-militarized_police_horses.jpg)

I am not a horse lover and not even a big horse racing fan. But I love to watch the fan fair of the big races and try to remember to turn on the TV.

Give me #14. I'm a sucker for gray horses.

I had Hot Rod Charlie. The wife had Rock your World. I haven’t picked a winner since Calvin Borel was riding.

As were the races before it. There was a 'Dead Heat' today. Skipping all the races or tuning in at the time of The Derby is not always good.

There WAS a member on here that was gonna organize a THF bourbon tour. Wait, maybe that was me just wishing he would.  I tried! COVID (Bashear) shut all the tours down and those that weren't were booked months in advance at reduced capacity (Buffalo Trace)! Best I found was a 30 minute tasting at Angel's Envy. It was worth every penny!   How about a DMZ tour???
