The Derby

[K.D.D.D.D.Soc]

Did any one bet on the winner? My missus told me she read about a time capsule found in Crystal Palace Park containing some coins and note dated 1964 saying place money on any horse in the Derby with Christmas conection. She wanted to push the boat out and had £1 ew I joined her with £5 bet. First Derby winner I've backed in years, paid for family takeaway.
