The Run for the Roses is tomorrow, the first Saturday in May, and will be the 136th running of the Kentucky Derby.\u00a0 Billed as the “Most exciting two minutes in sport”, it will capture the attention and wallets of millions.<\/p>\n

I attended my first Run for the Roses Kentucky Derby in 1960 at the invitation of my future husband.\u00a0 I was a college senior and not very worldly.\u00a0 Oh sure, I’d visited New York, Miami and Cuba.\u00a0 Yes, you could travel to Cuba in those days!\u00a0 And I had even lived in Cleveland for a year, but that didn’t add up to sophistication.\u00a0 I did know that all the women wore hats so I went shopping with some friends and purchased the complete ensemble.\u00a0 I remember the suit and blouse but can’t recall the hat details other than it was white.\u00a0 Little did I know at the time that attending the Kentucky Derby would become such a frequent event during the next 40 years or that I would have a collection of Yvonne LaFleur<\/a> designed hats stored in my closet in her beautiful hat boxes papered in bouquets of violets.\u00a0 Hmmm, maybe there’s a Casart removable wallcovering<\/a> design idea there!\u00a0 If you live in New Orleans and are going to the Derby or will be on the Rex reviewing stand on Mardi Gras, you know Yvonne and her millinery magic!<\/p>\n

After so many Derby races, you’d think I would be a big winner.\u00a0 Sorry to disappoint.\u00a0 Oh, I know how to read a form and I understand betting.\u00a0 My trouble is the way I pick the horses.\u00a0 I’ve looked at the contenders for this year and here are my tips.\u00a0 Look At Lucky<\/strong> is trained by Bob Baffert and has 4-1 starting odds.\u00a0 The odds and trainer are good, but I picked it because my cat’s name is Lucky.\u00a0 I’d play it across the board and follow up with Jackson Bend<\/strong> trained by Nick Zito (another top trainer) with long shot odds of 20-1.\u00a0 I picked that one because Jackson is my last name.\u00a0 Of course, I can’t overlook Endorsement. <\/strong>He’s trained by a woman, Shannor Ritter, who is a former jockey (more power to her!) and ridden by Robby Albarado who is a Louisiana native.\u00a0 I don’t know the colors of any of the horses but if there are any grey horses, I’d bet those to show because they rarely win but I always bet the greys.\u00a0 I’d also bet the field to show and my sure fire winning tip-bet every <\/strong>horse in the race to win and you can say you had the Derby winner!\u00a0 So much for reading the form!\u00a0 If you want to learn more about the Run for the Roses, here is the link to the official Kentucky Derby<\/a> site.<\/p>\n

Kentucky Derby Trophy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Is the Derby just a horse race?\u00a0 Not at all.\u00a0 It is the first leg of the Triple Crown of racing.\u00a0 It is a fashion show. It is a lump in your throat when they play “My Old Kentucky Home” and the horses come out on the track.\u00a0 It is a party that starts early and ends late.\u00a0 There’s a song with lyrics by Ray Charles called One Mint Julep. It claims that julep “was the start of it all”.\u00a0 Yep, the day does start with a mint julep and ends with one, with a lot more in between those two!\u00a0 The best tasting ones are consumed from a silver julep cup, of course.\u00a0 In fact, Woodford Reserve has partnered with Tiffany to offer a $1000 silver julep cup with all proceeds benefiting the Barnstable Brown Diabetes and Obesity Center.\u00a0 Even if you don’t purchase the Tiffany designed cup, here is the recipe for what goes in it!<\/p>\n

Featured Recipe<\/strong>
\n
\nWoodford Reserve Mint Julep<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1 serving<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

1 level tsp powdered
\nsugar
\n2 – 3 fresh mint
\nleaves
\nCrushed ice
\n2 oz. Woodford Reserve,
\nplus a bit more for muddling<\/em><\/p>\n

Place powdered sugar in julep cup. Add fresh mint leaves. Wet with a splash of Woodford Reserve and muddle together using wooden muddler (a spoon works well also). Fill the cup 2\/3 full with crushed ice.<\/em><\/p>\n

Add a straw and mint sprig. Garnish and tamp down ice with muddler. Add 2 oz. of Woodford Reserve, and top off the cocktail with loose crushed ice. <\/em><\/p>\n
