Blast from the past - Who was your Derby horse?

[miraja2]

My two were Sweetnorthernsaint and Steppenwolfer. It was so wide open though that I really had no idea. The TC race that I was the most sure of was the Belmont.
After the Arkansas Derby I said....Steppenwolfer is definitely going to win the Belmont. I was confident he would from that moment until they reached the far turn in the race. I still don't understand why he didn't get up in that race. Oh well.

Had too many bets as usual, but the keys were SNS and Barbaro. Had Point Determined keyed on the backside, but not on top.

It was Brother Derek, but it changed to Barbaro 2 minutes later. BD just had another breeze the other day and they mentioned he might run before Del Mar closes.

I was definitely on Barbaro. I can't remember who my pick was for the Oaks, but I know it sure was not Lemons Forever!

barbaro--keyed him over sweetnorthernsaint, jazil, bro derek, and steppenwolfer. had I not ignored Pletcher I would have made a nice profit.

Okay, let's take it a step further..... for those of you who played the futures, who did you pick?

Corinthian and Barbican. Both side-lined before the Classics. Typical.

And I now love you... any word on him? He was an impressive looking animal.

Bob and John & Lawyer Ron in the 1st Pool. At least they both made the race

I was at the derby and getting my ass handed to me all day and was down to my last $200 and took one look at Barbaro in the paddock and put all of the money on his head. The crowd went crazy trying to get to the loose money and I was arrested for public intoxication.
