Boring Derby??

BTW, not in any particular order after the tri, the top six horses in the race I picked showed up as the top six in the race. And that rarely if ever happens for me.

Those not on the AP bandwagon yet will just have to join in later or stand on the sidelines and watch the parade go by. I have reserved enthusiasm right now. We'll see.

That was a tough horse to pick. What made you think AP was going to win it? I didnt hear anyone talking about this horse winning the derby.
Nice Score! Share your secrets for the preakness (and other races) next time.

Yep, the favorite always wins the Derby. I don't listen to the "experts", the "analysts" and don't care what they say. I learned that I long time ago. I handicap and pick horses the same for any race, Derby or a 10K claiming. There ya go, my secret is out.

Never mind that in the decades of the 80s & 90s, not one favorite won.
