Who do you like in the Derby?

I looked over the DRF PPs today with the high potential for sub-par track conditions for Louisville on Saturday in mind. My pick right now: Friesan Fire. But the ponies are all about the odds, so we'll see what the numbers are tomorrow afternoon when I run up to the track.

good luck

With 20 horses in the race, it makes it tough. I usually wait till the second or third leg of the triple crown. Good luck guys whoever you bet.

Over the years, I've had good luck with the Derby.
Way back when, I ran a pool for my friends. $2 a pop and we drew the horses name out of a hat. I picked last and got a real longshot. We drew a second pool and this time I got the first pick. wouldn't you know,I picked the same damn horse.Some unknown horse from South America by the name of Cannonero 11.
My best hit was taking a $10 across the board flyer on another longshot named War Emblem.
Along the way, I've had Silver Charm, Smarty Jones and Big Brown. Was shut out on Barbaro when I forgot the race started three hours early on a Vegas trip.

Especially with about half (give or take a couple) of the field being legitimate contenders. :eek: Thanks for the luck!
