Good Old Kentucky Bourbon

Partnerships that are approaching two decades have ironed out the kinks of the relationship long ago.  A no brainer was seen when Woodford Reserve Bourbon crafted their official limited run of bottles for this years Run For the Roses.  Vivid imagery adorns the bottle as we see six steeds powering out of turn one in bold colors.  The artist for the cover rotates each year and this time it is Carole Andreen-Harris.  Most of the time these promotional products are not value driven but for only $43.99 it is a quality drink to rail your favorite horse to in America’s Bookie Racebook.

Wood Memorial Day

Most of the hub bub has been about Daredevil.  From the More Than Ready lineage, he just missed out at the Gulfstream to Ready for Rye at the Swale.  Even though many of the steeds have promise in the three year old main event field, our money is on Daredevil as you will see some big things from him this year.
