    How are the horses determined? I'm guessing they will just be listed numerically and you'll run a random number generator?

    yes, below are the post position by horse with odds, trainers, and jockeys. i will put 8 names in a random number/order generator. the number you are in the generator corresponds with the post position, and by association, the pony, you get. i will also enter the names alphabetically just for more randomness.

    Post Position Horse Odds Trainer Jockey
    1 American Pharoah 4-5 Bob Baffert Victor Espinoza
    2 Dortmund 7-2 Bob Baffert Martin Garcia
    3 Mr. Z 20-1 D. Wayne Lukas Corey Nakatani
    4 Danzig Moon 15-1 Mark Casse Julien Leparoux
    5 Tale of Verve 30-1 Dallas Stewart Joel Rosario
    6 Bodhisattva 20-1 Jose Corrales Trevor McCarthy

    That sucks. Same thing happened to me this year hosting an NBA Playoffs pool...

    Diving Rod huh? He might be good for 3rd. Hoping for a scratch!
