I'm taking Whitmore. I think Espinoza makes it 3 derbies in a row.

Did it last year. Wasn't expecting the amount of weirdos I saw, but it was fun nonetheless.

I'm going to have to go one of these years. I was actually born during the running of the derby 35 years ago. Whenever the 2nd hits on a Saturday again, I'm going to make it a birthday weekend trip and hit all the distilleries I want to go to as well.

Doing the grandstands again for the Oaks on Friday.

Also a great way to spend that Friday instead of going to the Oaks.

I never do good on the Derby, too many horses.


That's the reason I love this race. Lots of deep quality for the exotics, and usually at a great price.

I'm a huge dork. I wake up every morning and turn on the live stream

He looked hitchy behind before his work last week. Maybe I'm just picking on mor spirit bc I don't like him and he'll make me look like a fool.

I zero interest in going to churchill for derby day. been there during fall meets, was good enough.

it's so packed, that if u dont get to windows early, u will be shut out, i'm a late bettor, i like to wait till last few minutes, to see if any crazy tote action comes up.


Opening day for Fairmount, nothing beats afternoon racing.

I had a ton of fun last time I went to the derby. Paddock passes for a horse running on oaks day were awesome and the tickets my dad got me were great. I could bet, get drinks, and go to the bathroom without too much wait.

'09 was a shitshow, though
