lol. I was just searching to see if anyone had posted a Derby thread.

This is a TOUGH race to bet. Fierceness, when he’s on, is clearly the fastest horse in the race. In this race, the fastest doesn’t always win. However, gap to the next contrnders is big.

His odds reflect that. And that’s what makes it tough. If he doesn’t fall down,or get trapped behind a wall…. All the exotic bets won’t pay well.

There’s zero early speed in this race, and a bunch of horses that want to come off the pace. That sets up well for Fierceness. I think he wins.

I’ll still bet on a couple of longshots, like Catalytic and the Freedom horse. But, I’m not making a bunch of tri-bets like I normally would.

I am extremely tired. I am going to hit the sack right now.

This Video is, "Arinanara," by Luisito Quintero Y Manolito Rodriguez, followed by the Normal Music List.

It's a beautiful day for the race. Stooge Hand is the favorite, Assault is in there, Dog Biscuit is three-to-one, Safety Pin has been scratched, and at 20 to one is Beetle Bomb. Listen all the way through to find out who wins.

Good luck to you, SomeCallMeTim...may your favorite horse win.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Get some good rest. spel. Are you being pounded with rain?

I have family in Splendora and New Caney and their homes are ok for now, but their yards are flooded.

Yuck I hate horse racing. It is cruel. How many horses will die this year?
