The back of Ellie and Reagan's hats.
Ellie is studying the names of the horses to decide who she wants to win from the Derby program. In race 7 there was a horse named "Dreaming of Anna" which we placed a bet for it to show and it did!
Ellie is in line to cash her tickets. (I actually cashed them, so don't worry David.)
Here is a picture of "Big Brown" right before the Derby race. Ellie wanted three horses to win - so we placed bets for "Eight Belles", "Z Fortune", and "Big Brown" to place. We got two out of our three! It was very sad what happened to "Eight Belles", and we did not see her go down. On our way out of Churchill Downs, we saw one of the owners of "Big Brown" and they knew Uncle Mark. They were very nice and gave Ellie a rose off of the garland that was placed on the horse in the winners circle. Ellie brought the rose home on the plane.
