I always loved Craig Perret and always seemed to have success betting him. Always thought of him as the 'anti-Pat Day'...

Like many here probably, I've recorded just about every Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont since I picked up my first VCR at a Kroger's grocery store in 1985.

(Yes, Krogers......at about 2AM)

I forget the year, but FWIW I very well recall Jim McKay singing the praises of Craig Perret being a big family man, passing up rides to spend time with his family.

Craig Perret- Will be getting the Jerry Bailey book for Xmas. Hope he reads it, can relate, and use it for change.
