trot, gallop, or hop to preakness

Today may have been the 42nd Annual Preakness Frog Hop, but it was the first time I placed in the top three (please see my excitement pictured.)

Linda (pictured, far right, in the midst of a valiant fist pump) helped me co-jockey “Downtown Kirby” to a whopping 4 feet 6.5 inch jump. Not bad for a frog named after our own Downtown Partnership President, Kirby Fowler.

Maybe next year we will bring home the gold. Until then, I can only hope that my luck. . .err. . .I mean skill . . .will last through the weekend at the actual Preakness this Saturday!

$20 on Big Brown—win, place, or show.
