    There are 13 horses in the Breeder's Cup Classic on Saturday. You can sign up for 2 spots total, once per day. I will assign you a horse on Saturday afternoon (or if the spots fill up before then).

    The user assigned to the winning horse will get 24 hours of colors.

    I enjoy watching major events, and I hope Mike Francesa -loves horse racing and handicapping- covers it a bit on his radio program in between the Yankee coverage.

    No help from Francesa, because he hates synthetic tracks and can only guess turf horses will fare well. He's down on Zenyatta against the boys, but let's see where the chips land anyway.

    Listening to Jim Rome today, he was at Santa Anita and had a horse running. The horse came in DFL (that's 'dead freaking last' and was to quote him). He's covering the Cup tomorrow, too.

    I had to laugh when he read that email that went something like "Yo Van Smack, at least you weren't trackside covering the race live on air!"

    His whole show today was about the race and everything to do with his horse. What a loltastic outcome.

    lol, a horse has never been scratched at the gate out of the Breeder's Cup. So I figured that meant I should give you a different horse.

    She started dead freaking last and calmly ran down the entire field of other horses. Incredible performance.

    VO: "She's eleven back, she'll be a super horse if she wins this race..."

    And then she does it. Great stuff.
