It's a mere 11 days until this year's spectacular Run for the Roses, so it's time to break out the fancy hats and start the annual Derby thread.
Unfortunately, my SIL has decided to graduate on that day (AGAIN!), so I'll neither be watching the race nor hosting my annual Derby party. Perhaps that has contributed to my ambivalence about this year's race, but I must admit that the current field has been rather underwhelming, as well. No one really seems to stand out. I'm picking Gunnevera because I liked him a lot before his disappointing last race, and I didn't think he fared too poorly even in his loss.
So, who are you rooting for? Who's going to the track? Who will raise a mint julep for me (while I watch a neverending parade of graduates across a stage).
