Any Big Browns out there this year?

Have heard no hype for the KY Derby.

Big horse racing day leading up to hoops. Tracks across the country will be busier than normal today.

[robmpink]

Yes, a lot of big races today. I can't speak for anyone else but I'm not feeling the excitment that I had the past couple of years with these derby preps. On the flip side, it makes it a more open derby.

[robmpink]

I wonder how American Lion will do on the dirt in the Ill Derby? I liked him going into this year but he can't seem to win a big one this year.

good stuff general cant wait for triple crown

[The General]

The lack of hype concerning any one or two horses may turn out to be good for the Derby build-up. Today will assist in sorting out a couple clear cut favs most likely.

[SlickFazzer]

would like to pound a couple of these today..

[jjgold]

Horses racing gets good now, lots of big races, warmer weather

Good time to bet

[Brewers in 7]

real nice card at Santa Anita today, lots of wide open races.. Im going bombs away in the santa anita derby, taking a shot with the 2 horse Thomas Baines, 50-1 in the program, has a shot to hit the board, betting him WPS and a three horse box with Looking at Lucky and CArdiff Giant - another bomber..

lookin at lucky

Sidney's Candy for me as long as I can get 9/2 or better.

[woodsen2]

Santa Anita and Wood are on NBC, not ABC

[The General]

ESKENDEREYA looked strong at Aqueduct in the Wood.

Santa Anita winner will be known in a few minutes. I'd try to beat LOOKIN AT LUCKY here with a better price.

SIDNEY'S CANDY or ALPHIE'S BET

Illinois underway

AMERICAN LION takes the Illinois Derby.

SIDNEY'S CANDY Takes the Santa Anita derby impressive. Easy ride on the way to Kentucky.

I believe there are going to be no less than a half dozen legitimate 3 year olds to pick from with a good solid chance at winning the 136th Kentucky Derby. I have been abstaining from trying to pick the derby winner recently because it is such a crap shoot and there are better horse races to bet every day throughout the year. Some people bet one horse race a year, that being the Ky derby. Whatever floats your boat works.

Sidney's Candy for me as long as I can get 9/2 or better.

LOOKIN AT LUCKY's troubled ride looked about like what we often see in the Ky Derby. I get a feel the horse may see the same when the gates open for the derby. LOOKIN AT LUCKY showed some nice talent finishing 3rd and rallying after having to get off the gas so a legitimate contender next month.
