1. The Desormeaux crew ready for action with Exaggerator.

I gare-own-tee.

5. Regardless of the outcome

I am happy to see Kent Desormeaux back in the saddle and doing well. He is one helluva jockey.

2. Exaggerator, Nyquist and Mohaymen...

I love 10 /1 price on Mo.

Something is itching me this year...an upset this year?

This could be an old Jock like Gary Stevens winning the day type of race.

I got my closer in Exaggerator....so...I may go dollar Tri with the 3 above going first and second with a bunch behind them.

Or...I might just drop a Benny on one of them to win.

Damn good race this year.

4. Yeah, I'm not counting old Gary Stevens out!!!! LOL

No horse has ever won the Derby from the 17th position.

Point Given [I loved that horse!!!!!] was defeated in 2001 from the 17th position, but went on to win the Preakness and the Belmont.

Point Given was trained by Baffert and ridden by Stevens.

Gonna be awesome!!!!!

I'm picking Mor Spirit, Nyquist and Exaggerator with Whitmore (Victor Espinoza) in there close.

3. Getting excited.....love this race.....

oh, and any gray winning???? Is just fine by me.

6. If the track comes up sloppy, I'll bet the house on.....

...Exaggerator. If it's listed as fast, I have a couple of horses that look good to me. I want to see the PP's and look at the running lines of a couple I'm not as familiar with. Get a race shape in my mind. I'm thinking fast early, slow late. A couple of the longer priced horses may try to go with Nyquist and leave it to a closer. I'm liking Suddenbreakingnews as of today. Best of luck to all.

7. Yeah his race at Santa Anitia was amazing...

If it's wet it will be interesting.

11. Nyquist, Creator, Suddenbreakingnews and Mohaymen.....

.....exacta and trifecta box.

Safe trips to all.

[trumad]

12. Decided to go with Nyquist and Exaggerator as my two top horses...

and dollar tri them with Suddenbreakingnews, Creator, Mohaymen, and Mor Spirit.

Kills me not to go with Mohaymen and if he wins I'll be kicking myself. I might---just might throw some type of insurance bet on him.

Good luck.

[twogunsid]

13. He's a good price....

....and a value. Best of luck, tru!

[twogunsid]

14. Nice job tru....

finished 1-2. I keep underrating Nyquist. He never looks that good to me and then he goes out and beats everybody that challenges him. He's sneaky good.

16. Nothing extraordinary.

It was chalk. Missed my Tri with Gunrunner placing 3rd. Kicking myself cause I liked Gunrunner.

I think Suddenbreakingnews is the horse to watch here out.

8. This is a very good betting race for longshots

Throw four darts and box the trifecta.

9. Looks like a great day for racing......

May 6 and 7 look to be the perfect day for a visit to the track. According to the Weather Channel, temperatures will be between mid and upper seventies and the skies will be partly cloudy. May 6 could have a 40% chance of rain, but May 7 is looking a little better with only a 20% chance.

Looks like we are going to have a beautiful Derby day this year.

10. Good luck to all.

Safe trips for all, as well.

We just finished making our office bet. I cannot wait!

15. Exaggerator sez: You will not win the Triple Crown, Nyquist.

I will catch you next time.

Kent might have started his run a little late.
