My apologies for the slow news day. I’m on a little vacation at Churchill Downs. Blogging will return to normal early next week.

Enjoy. You well deserve the break. Thanks again for your excellent blog.
No apologies! You provide us with the benefit of a great blog, as well as the humor derived from your cutting wit, both here & on Twitter, delivered against the statists & biased journalists.
Enjoy a mint julep one is usually enough .
I just hope all the Horse Owners like to associate with blacks. Do black horses get a head start? Any Gay issues among the horses?
The MSM will be out in force looking for something to demonize.
I don’t think they’ll let you enter Miniature Schnauzers. But it would look adorable with the Capuchin monkey in his little set of silks.
No apologies are needed.
Have a great break!
the second image is Eadweard Muybridge x2. great shot.
Funny, read the book “Black Maestro”. In the old days the best jockeys were negroes. Go to 21 Club in NYC and see the statues of the negro jockeys. Sorry PC schmucks, that was their name then. Guess which political constituency drove them out of horse racing. Hint: it was the Republicans. Anyway, the story of Jimmy Winkfield is incredible.

Jeez Kate, in that prestigious environment, I hope you don’t get carried away with your little pooches like Peter did:

Enjoy, but hurry back.
EDIT EDIT above
Sorry – it was NOT the Republicans – it was Obama’s party. Need editing function and I need to drink less wine.
Go California Chrome
Ok…gotta ask: Is that you grinning ear to ear in the bottom picture Kate??
And…this explains last nights mood music…
I like it when you include pictures of places and events that are keeping you from entertaining us on the blog.
Have a couple of mint juleps for me, without the mint.
I will likely wager on Wicked Strong, but its post position has me concerned.
Yeah, that’s me on the horse. Happened to me at NASCAR, too.
