I liked him in the Derby and I'll stick with him now. I haven't had time to read the DRF. :)

Hey!! I'm at work, probably won't be able to keep up!
Just wanted to say Barbaro is going to be hard to beat. I'm not a huge racing fan but I know enough to be dangerous. To me, the most impressive thing about the Derby win was that he looked fresh after the race. He looked like he was ready to go again. Speeds great but endurance wins Triple Crowns. The Derby was the most impressive Triple Crown race I've ever seen, with the exception of Secretariats Belmont. And I've been watching for 35 years.

Have you read the DRF? I am wondering if he still looks much the best. Oh well, I have no bets placed this time around.

If PP 6 doesn't win a lot of people and the Belmont will be pi$$ed.

I've picked the last two winners of the Derby, and two of the other horses in the box.
My method is comepletely unorthodox. I pick the pretty one. I also pick the ones with names I like, or I'll sometimes pick a grey one.
There. Now you all know my technique. :)

I'll be cheering for Barbaro, too. I'd like to see another Triple Crown winner--it's been a long time.
Thanks for this thread, HOTD.

My technique.
I wait for a hunch. I'm still waiting.

Derby day was a big deal at my house when I was growing up. The odd thing was my dad was not a gambler at all..he just loved the Derby. Every Derby day we'd all sit around the table, look at the paper and he'd let me and my brothers pick horses and he's bet a couple of bucks on them. It was quite the tradition. One we continued every year till the year he died. The year before he died he picked the trifecta. I'll never forget it.
I tell you this because that's how I pick my horses now...whatever horse's name makes me think of my dad the most is the one I pick...this year? SWEETNORTHERNSAINT.....
