Payton, Loomis, Brees, Buffett have Derby day horse

Fleurdefortyfour may not be the most famous horse running Saturday at Churchill Downs but he could have the most famous owners.

Racing on Kentucky Derby day, the 3-year-old colt is 10-1 in a 1 1/16th mile allowance race. He'll run under the colors of Last Mango Racing Stable.

Sorry .... I should have posted that link. :wink:
That hat was a birthday gift last year
from a friend that used to go
to the Preakness with me every year
back in "the day".

Last year was my first return trip
in over a decade. The infield is still nuts.
