    well, since the preakness edition was flawless compared to the kentucky derby edition, i figured lets do this again for the belmont...

    this was run a couple years ago for the derby, and i must not have seen it last year at all. back in college, my friends and i would get together and throw in $10 and draw horses names out of a hat, and if your horse won, it was a great day with the winner taking the pot. with the belmont coming up, i am going to try the same thing, but with bourbon (or other) barrel aged beer. the cost of admission is 22+ ounces of 90+ rated bourbon barrel aged beer, and you have to ship by 6/22. there are almost always double digit horses in this race, so looking for roughly the same number or people to enter (first come, first serve). please message me your contact info and/or post it here. i will enter all those interested in a random order generator, and the number you get is the horse you will own come race day. the list of horses will come later and an email will come out with your pony. payouts will be determined closer to the race, but i am thinking 1st and 2nd will win something, and possibly 3rd.

    Is this same as Preakness as far as scratches after horses are picked?
