I wonder if the Animal Planet folks wished they were following them this time around what with Joe Talamo and Jon Court looking at being on their first Derby starters. It'd be a huge deal for Jon to finally have this experience after all the years he's put into the sport. You have to feel good for him.

No; it's been cancelled. Ratings were pretty dismal the second season.

Can't believe people weren't drawn in by the trials and tribulations of Mike and Chantal---I mean, of horse racing.

I might bet Dublin heavy in the Derby...
Again today a wide trip, with a premature move. When is someone going to sit on him and make 1 run?

Rat? He is a Grade 1 winner already. He has had a trip every race this year. He is dangerous.

I was really surprised to see Jon out there winging it. But - he saved just enough. I hit the exacta and the WPS
but if Jon lets the 1 get by
I hit the Superfecta

I wish Jon could figure out a way to get that horse another 1/8th of a mile but I can't see it.

Congrats. Wish I'd been able to play today, but I'm sure I would have given it back at SA.
