Anyone going? Pretty good card in addition to the Derby. Aspy's SO has Gantry running in the 3rd race as the 1-2 heavy favorite.

Baffert ships in Blueskiesnrainbows as the favorite for the Derby, but there is other speed in the race. The Hollendorfer colt may be able to run em down late.

I like Lexis, and I like bourbon courage in there.

I'm more freaking nervous for this race today than I was the g2 in july. Mostly because I had 3, count em 3(?!?) bad dreams that he got pinned on the rail and ran last against this group.

We also have sweetsouthernmoon in the same race.

Dude, you start a thread then don't come back?

The crazy Russian has a good jock up this time, so if everybody lets hero have the lead he may pull another la derby.

I hope he's in the barn next to us again this year. I like the guy.

Sorry, Aspy. I got out to the track at 11:45 to get a good spot. Had Gantry in a DD bet with an 18-1 shot in the 4th, who won.

I originally had the 3 horse in there also, but Gantry looked so good in the paddock that I took the 3 out. Oh well, I'll still be rooting for Gantry on Breeders Cup day.
