May need to pick a good mudder for the Oaks. Weather not looking too promising.First impression. I think Fierceness will be hard to beat but also like the Japanese horse Forever Young at 10 to 1.
Oaks I love Just FYI

A monumental weekend at Churchill Downs kicks off on Friday with the Kentucky Oakswww.nbcsports.com
I liked that horse too. Coming in second, if you bet win and place, you profited $1.06 for every $2 your bet. I hope you bet a bunch. I had $20 to win and place, so I won $10.60. Doesn't seem worth the effort, but I didn't lose.Won a little bit of money on a win place bet on Just FYI - hoping to do better tomorrow.
30-30 here for a $15 profit, better than a sharp stick in the eyeI liked that horse too. Coming in second, if you bet win and place, you profited $1.06 for every $2 your bet. I hope you bet a bunch. I had $20 to win and place, so I won $10.60. Doesn't seem worth the effort, but I didn't lose.
Not sure how poor they are. $130 to get in the infield this year.On the tube they just flashed the poors dancing by porta potties in the in field. Nothing like being hammered by 1 pm and doing the electric slide while smelling piss and a$$.
Have you seen ticket prices lately ? The infield is no longer for the poors (very expensive for tickets now). It has gotten to the point, poors can't even get into the track.On the tube they just flashed the poors dancing by porta potties in the in field.

It's all relative and they are the Derby poors.Have you seen ticket prices lately ? The infield is no longer for the poors (very expensive for tickets now). It has gotten to the point, poors can't even get into the track.
They do.22 bucks for a crappy mint julep this year. I think they still use pre-mixed Old Forester.
If it's moderately overcast, load up on 3 with 10 as a sleeper
Pretty much agree, no way Mystik Dan is a TC winnerHeading into the first turn I thought Fierceness was in a really good spot. When I saw the times for the first half, I thought he was going to be able to shake free in the turn and run them all off their feet. Bottom line, he just wasn’t good enough.
2:03.3 for a final Derby time with many of the horses backing up and shutting down mid stretch isn’t too impressive. Very mediocre field and a “fresh” Baffert (Muth) is waiting for them in Maryland.
