Awesome
Thrilling
Suspenseful
Rewarding,
even if you didn't place a wager
...and Relief
that all participants, equine and human,
got safely to the finish line...
...but as an owner of (now retired) race horses,
(racing in the northern part of the country and Canada)
I can tell you not once did any of us girlies - or guys-
ever feel even slightly compelled
to wear a hat.
Yet if I had the pleasure of attending the Derby,
it would be the first thing I would run out and buy.

I'm sure I could find - with a little research - the connection...
...and why it matters so;
but it does.
