    The favourite, I Want Revenge has dropped out.

    Tuna is a big time pony player, in fact Ireland said he just gives Tuna money to bet for him.


    To win...Friesan Fire
    Exacta...Friesan FireMusket Man,
    Trifecta Friesan Fire, Musket Man, Pioneer of the Nile

    Chocolate Candy and Desert Party are intriguing plays for nice pay outs. And dont poopoo Dunkirk!

    This year is a toss up, 60% chance of rain, that throws everything off kilter.

    Frisian Fire recently won on a sloppy track.

    The Trifecta would have been Mine that Bird, Pioneer of the Nile and Musket Man.

    Mine That Bird....huge longshot...simply amazing story.


    Rashard Lewis(Orlando Magic Forward) had a horse in the race, it actually lead about 3/4 of the way or more and it too was a longshot at 50-1, it's "Join In The Dance"

    Yeah, that was an amazing run from the back of the pack for the 50 to 1 shot... squeezed its way along the rail... shot out of a cannon.

    I absolutely MURDERED that Churchill Card.

    KILLED it. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    missed on the derby though. I had the Godolphin horses Desert Party and Regal Ransom.

    This year's winner is worse than Giacomo...and I thought that wasn't possible.

    the weird thing is that he was so impressive in winning.

    It was a biased rail today and Calvin Borel took advantage.

    What was with the "GOdolphin" name? Isn't the owner from Saudi Arabia?

    I hope Mine That Bird can win the Triple Crown....I heard the horse was pulled by a trailer from New Mexico to Churchill Down the day before the race. Sounds like a common man's horse and not a horse of kings.

    I'll win the triple crown before he wins it.

    remember...the TWO BEST 3 year old's did not run...I want Revenge and Quality Road.

    then you have other very good 3 year olds in Square Eddie that scratched from the race....
