An Expert’s Take On The Kentucky Derby

We had fun covering the Kentucky Derby yesterday. but now it’s time to step back and listen to the expert’s take on the matter. Our horse racing blog, And Down The Stretch They Come, has a full recap of Saturday’s action, including a horse-by-horse rundown. A sample, starting from the back end:

↵↵18-Backtalk: I could come up with something to say about this colt, but he lost by 70 ¼ lengths...I think that says it all.

↵19-Homeboykris: I seriously can’t believe this colt went off at 27/1 when the gates opened...yeah, Joe Torre, yadda, yadda, yadda...this colt had no chance to win and was essentially done after four furlongs, which shouldn’t be surprising since he hadn’t run a race since the end of February.

↵↵If you are a time traveler who wants to make a lot of money and speak like an authority, this is essential reading.
