The Derby is Saturday and I have nothing about a favorite or any horse that might be running. Wonder why?

Amazing.

The most overwhelming favorite in years is running: California Chrome. He has been winning big and winning easily. He is a spectacular individual, and his backstory is wonderful. His trainer was Swaps' regular exercise rider in 1955.

Might have something to do with the fact that I refuse to pay for the local left wing rags they call newspapers here in Ky and that I got rid of my tv about 3 years ago. Thanks for the link. Usually though here you will hear people talking about their pick but not this year. Lack of discretionary money to blow maybe? Still having Derby parties though.
