Oh my catness! I picked the winner again!
Everyfur picked at least one of the top three finishers, but only Andy & I got the top three although neither of us picked the correct order.
Congrats to all of us!

Twinkle, you called the winner! And switched around second and third!
Andy, you got all three, just needed to put "Grey" first!
It wasn't a large field, so there were no excuses from anyone; just glad everyone made it around the track running in the mud.

Twinkle and Andy, congratulations on getting all three!
Congratulations to the rest of us getting at least one!
Athena, I was a little concerned about them running in that slippery mud, but I’m glad everything went OK.

Just Steel (Justify) exited the Preakness Stakes with a condylar fracture of the right front leg and according to trainer Wayne Lukas, will be dropped off at Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital in Lexington for further evaluation.
A lead pony bit part of a finger off the hand of Dorothy Watley, 90, when she tried to feed it carrots between races at Pimlico Race Course ahead of the 2024 Preakness Stakes on Saturday afternoon.
Before the Jim McKay Turf Sprint, the 11th race of the day and two before the Preakness, the rider of a lead pony — who guides and calms racehorses during events — led their horse to the edge of the track and fans in the concourse apron box reached out to pet it. Dorothy, who uses a wheelchair, was attending the races with her son, Rudy Watley, and tried to feed the horse carrots with her right hand. She didn’t leave her palm open enough and the horse bit off the proximal bone of her middle finger.

Oh, yuck. 😟 It takes a lot longer to recover from an injury at 90 years old. And she might not have been able to hold her hand out flat.
I hope both she and Just Steel recover quickly.

Fingers look a lot like carrots! And lots of times people who aren't around horses try to give them a carrot and when the horse reaches for the carrot people pull their hand back. Then they hold the carrot out for the horse and when it reaches for the carrot, again the person pulls their hand back, so the horse, in a sense is being teased so it "grabs" for the carrot.
Hoping for complete recovery for Just Steel.
