Manifold Derby II
The Derby will take place on April 13th (a Saturday) afternoon (potentially streamed???) and will be uploaded here shortly after. There will be only one run, and the winner of that run (first horse to trigger their gate) will be crowned the second Manifold Derby champion!

Derby starts at around 35:30. My apologies for not making the racing screen big, I totally forgot ha!
The Fluid Build up in My Lungs has been branded and will compete in the Mushroom league, which saw our unnamed Sparkle White horse be promoted. Thanks for betting, and join us next month!
@StopPunting If you're doing it live on Youtube make sure you request the ability to go live now if you haven't done it already. It takes them a day or so to give you permission.
