Does backtalk have a Mine that Bird type chance, I'm starting to think so.

My husband thinks so. I actually LAUGHED at him when he told me he put some $$$ on Backtalk. But then again I still kick myself for only putting $10 to win on War Emblem instead of the $20 my husband TOLD me to. I laughed at him about that pick too. I only put the $10 to win on WE because I had done well in the other races that day and had some extra cash and it got the hubby to stop calling me and telling me to put money on WE.

Those mine that bird races don't happen very often.

I totally agree. I am leaning towards a 10-1 or so less horse winning.

I'm playing Candy, Lucky and Ice Box. Good odds on all and hoping for nice exacta/ triple payout.

I like Sidney's Candy, Icebox, and Backtalk. I am going to bet one to win place, and if Sid's Candy stays double digits I think it's time to load up.

Jackson Bend has no shot, but you like Backtalk?

Backtalk is 2 fof 2 at Churchill Downs and 2 for 2 on wet tracks

I think Mission Impaz is improving and could do well today and break Todd's winless streak. The more I looked at him, the more I liked him. (Oh who am I kidding. I picked him because he is a roan. haha! I didn't really. I actually like him on paper but isn't that what women are supposed to say? "THE HORSE IS A PRETTY GREY".)

But I think that Jackson Bend and Ice Box will be up for some money.

Got Conveyance in my annual Derby pool at work. So we KNOW he won't win. I nine times out of ten pick the rabbit in the pool.

I actually threw out Backtalk. (Hubby loves this horse though and I have no clue why.) I also threw out Sidney's Candy. He is not a Big Brown to win from the 20 hole.

Ice Box I really like though.
