Offer good today, April 21, 2010 through tomorrow, April 22, 2010 11:59PM EST.

Straight From the Horse’s Mouth

April 19th, 2010

Emma disputes all accusations against her after a wild anabolic weekend.

She did not refer to Pegs as an “unsound barn sour.”

She did, however, offer Pegs some friendly advice for the race track and Pegs declined saying “I will be responsible for my own path.”

Videos from Emma’s party weekend have been removed from all internet video sites. More updates to follow.

Trash Talk

April 19th, 2010

Willoughby just announced his foaling date has been moved up but “all the other broodmares can get in line.” Any thoughts from Willoughby’s fans?

A Volcanic Update

April 19th, 2010

Pegs donated her yarn doll collection to the AVISF. (Active Volcanic Inanimate Sacrificial Foundation.) Do you think that creates any bad vibrations that my sacrifice a win?

Oscar…

April 18th, 2010

This just in – Oscar ate an abandoned hamburger bun off of a busy sidewalk. Any idea where he might be?

Cirrus Update

April 17th, 2010

Found out today that our most pachydermic race-phant turned down a Pulitzer in the late 70’s. Does that make him more or less competent for this race? We’d like to hear from you.

Update – Willoughby

April 16th, 2010

Our sir Willoughby, all over the derby tabloids for breaking up a series of celebrity marriages? Does this hurt his chance of winning?

Race Update – Emma

April 15th, 2010

Sure, Emma has stolen the hearts of many, but can she steal the win? We’ve caught wind of a past knee injury that might make that a little difficult. Anyone worried?
