I was so wrong on my derby pick that I hope there is a triple crown winner.

From what i gathered everyone was wrong on the derby. The odds of a triple crown this year are pretty much nil.

It would be nice but I don't think Giacomo can do it. I don't think the short distance and tight turns in the Preakness suit him. I think he was mis-underestimated in the Derby and also his jockey had been in several previous Derbies so that had to help, too.

Now, I did think Bellamy Road would not handle the heavy traffic in teh Derby -- I liked Afleet Alex.

But -- what do I know. Could be a different horse wins each part of the Triple Crown this year.
