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?

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.

I thought about this post the whole race. Nice handicapping. That horse ran really nice.

Icebox ran huge and most likely wins if he doesn't have stop and restart, tough break for his connections.

I agree about Icebox. He proved his Fla derby was no fluke
He was my second choice. Indeed he ran second.
Sidney was my top choice. A disappointmnet & I don't think Talamo did anything wrong.
[i]t was a good derby and Borel was brilliant
Good Derby, I enjoyed it. I wish I would have won! Onward & upward to the Preakness. I'll root for Supersaver.

the best moment of the day for me was General Quarters giving the big eff you to Court Vision and his crew...that was great!

Can't blame Gomez for Lucky's troubles this time when Garcia basically made a left turn straight into Lucky about a furlong into the race. That seemed unnecessary.

Actually Kent Desermeaux turned left into Garcia who had no where
to go but into Lucky, it wasn't his fault. I think they should just make the rail horse run with three legs, same handicap coming from that post, horse has no chance.

At least you can't really blame the break for the trouble. Still, a better horse could have overcome that sort of minor trouble so early in a race.
