6 Showing Up 20-1
7 Bob and John 12-1

Barbaro and Lawyer Ron are suposed to be the best bets. I'm pulling for Sinister Minister. I like the name and he blew away his competition in his last outing.

Thank you. I've been waiting for somebody to create this thread all day.

I'm betting on this blindly, and looking at numbers and post position.

I do like Barboa. Brother Derek is waaaaaaaay out there in post 18.

I think A.P. Warrior, and Showing Up are sleepers.

I might be wrong on everything.

I placed all kinds of bets totaling $29.00 bucks.

I probably wasted my money.

Well, i placed different bets totally $29.00. Today, at the Kentucy Derby, I won $28.20.

I lost $.80. Not bad.

If I stuck to picking horses instead of picking orders, I would have come out pretty er.

please stop making such definitive statements like this. it hasn't worked out well, and i'm rooting for this horse!!!!

i didn't even check in here given the limited interest in horse racing. glad to see a few are interested.
