Then we have Alex Brown who's claim to fame is being an exercise rider and hero to the pretty horsey set.
Third on the list is Jim Squires a retired Newspaper man who lucked into breeding Monarchos but has never done anything else of note in the business except write a book knocking everything and everybody.
Then we have Melissa Hoppert whose main qualification for being a horse racing blogger is "She was present when Sadie's Dream, owned by her aunt's family, won the 1994 Rose DeBartolo Memorial Stakes at Thistledown in Ohio." Uh okay....
Bob Goetz is a longtime fan
Peter Blair covered the Preakness one year
And then there is Gina Rarick who is a writer turned trainer who trains a few horses in France but has never trained a single horse in the US which never seems to damp her enthusiasm for criticizing US trainers or the sport here in general.
Quite a group of experts
