well its raining right now and there is a 100% chance of precipitation, they will be lucky if the severe weather doesn't shut them down during the course of the day...so yes, its going to be sloppy

Santana’s horse looks live in the derby at a big price.

He’s the wildcard for me. I’ll be backing Country House once again...hopefully it finally pays off. I’m out on Omaha Beach. Have it ranked:

#1 Improbable
#8 Country House
#7 Galilean
#11 Long Range Toddy
#5 Laughing Fox

I ended all bets with 8,11 while acknowledging that Improbable is the horse to beat.

I remember Lone Sailor galloping in the mud at Saratoga. I like him. It is a good race though, anyone could win.
