Kentucky Derby Day – 3:30 PM

It’s now 3:30 PM on Derby Day.

I bet as follows:

Win: Dialed In (can’t help it, I think he has the stuff)

Place: Animal Kingdom, Midnight Interlude, Brilliant Speed, and Shackleford

All very long shots. I think this Derby will be taken by a horse who is on the improve and his jockey will be the critical factor. So: John Velasquez, Victor Espinoza, Joel Rosario, and Jesus Castanon.  Castanon has the least experience and that is probably a disqualifying.  I’ve heard that Shackleford is training lights-out.

So, we’ll see…
