A Stroll Though Memory, Time and Politics With Stops Along The Way
Every year a group of friends and I make imaginary (sometimes real) wagers on the Kentucky Derby. To gear up for the great race, here are the current contenders seeking one of 20 slots available on May 5.
Columns are Current Rank, Horse Name & Sire, Owner and Current Jockey.

I’m a hair-dishevelled heilan’ coo,
Hamish McKay be ma name;
Welcome tae this dreichet glen
I’m cursed tae ca’ ma hame.
Depending on the mood I’m in
I’ll raise ma horns on high,
An’ if I like the look o’ ye
I’ll likely let ye by.
But should I dinnae like the look
O’ ye, then tak great care,
I’ll raise ma horns on high again,
Go on, get oot o’there!
So whether welcome yae or nae,
I’ll raise these horns sae mean,
Then ye shall ken ma meaning
By the twinkle o’ ma een.
