What's there not to like? Good post, can stalk or even close if he gets a bad start. Owns a 108 beyer over the track mind you. I think he is sitting on a big race, and will win.

Every newspaper,website I read is the same: "This year derby is wide open, anybody can win." This is probably true.

They said the exact same thing with March Madness this year. It was up for grabs. In the end it ended up 1-2.

Watch the same thing happen with the derby. Curlin-Sense, after everybody was looking for some bombs to come in.

Gambling is just messed up like that.

i don't think anybody can win it--some of these horses are really in over their heads, and it would take a miracle for them to win it.

Well, stranger things have happened I'm recalling the $275 I took home with me in 2005 Derby for a few simple across the board bets.

I'm putting $2 to win on the 5 longest odds. LOL

I have been on Street Sense from the beginning and can't see getting off him now. I'm afraid "the heaviest $2 in racing" (me) is going to doom him. I can't believe I am backing the favorite in the Derby.

Maybe I will leave him out of the win in my exotics and that will get him home.

I think I will make a $2 bet to keep in case he wins the Triple Crown.
