Oh, I thought it was a black-tie affair. 

It is.  They do the home run derby in dresses to support their daughters.

If gate positions matter to you.

Everyone outside of 10 moves in, and Cyclone Mischief takes the 20 gate position.

Kentucky Derby favorite Forte has been scratched from Saturday's race, Churchill Downs announced.

The decision to remove Forte was made after a Saturday morning workout. Forte galloped on the track and then jogged outside the barn, with trainer Todd Pletcher and co-owner Mike Repole seen meeting with a state racing commission veterinarian afterward.

Wasn't on my radar also.  Well, that sucked.  But at least it looked like a clean race.  None of that mugging that usually goes on with the derby.

[gotbeer]

Also, for a 15-1 winning.  The exacta and trifecta payoffs seemed really low.
