  • Equine enthusiasts ready for Breeders' Cup Nov. 6-7
        Let's put you up on a thoroughbred racehorse. Your head is now nine feet off the ground and you are sitting on something that is just a little wider than your keyboard. Your toes are resting in little metal rings and you have a little leather strap to hold onto. The creature underneath you weighs a half of a ton. In a moment I'll open the gates, that creature is going to make one jump that will be longer than your car and then will be running the length of a football field ­ every four seconds. Fifteen more of these half-ton creatures will be running right behind you and your horse. Neither your horse nor the ones behind you have any brakes. I'll open the gates whenever you're ready. Just say when.
