Derby Hype?

[Emily Mitchell]

Excited for this Derby - who has thoughts/picks/secrets to share on the field?

[Gwayne's World]

Thoughts: Thinking exhausts me.

Picks: Poldark.

Secrets: If I told you, it would no longer be a secret

[Carole Hanson]

I feel like Into the Unknown and Crimson Horizons will do the whole Affirmed/Alydar thing and I'm hyped for it!

My horse sucks, nobody pick him! He's in there because the race hasn't filled yet and he's stakes so why not.

LOL I had to pick a colt, have 2 freaks I think could run decently, but one is actually still a maiden (even though he last ran second to crimson horizons) so I decided he'd run elsewhere instead of throwing him to the sharks

[Gwayne's World]

Okay here's a thought.

Stretching out to ten furlongs is a whole different 'animal,' as opposed to 8.5 or 9 furlongs.

[Jack Meyer]

Thoughts: I'm Terrified

Picks: Crimson Horizons (reason I'm terrified)

Secrets: I remember a wise man from here once told me, "you can't win it if you aren't entered", the legend of Scott Eiland lives on, RIP my brother.

This is very true

[Louise Bayou]

Just entered my colt. He seems to run 1st then 2nd, 1st then 2nd. So fingers crossed that continues

My Derby thoughts - Fantastic Beast comes from a family who loves to disappoint somebody so he is either going to disappoint me or his non-believers However, distance should not be the reason. Prolly will fall on his face like he did in the Juvenile.

[Erin Sanderson]

I've got Can't Take the Sky in. I'm running for third behind the fillies :/

[Emily Mitchell]

My big mistake in Triple Crown Trail is I never include fillies

[The Steward]

We've obviously had good fillies run in the Derby and good fillies win AND lose the Derby, but I don't think we've ever had a year where everyone seemed to think a filly winning was a foregone conclusion. For a filly to win, the colts usually have to be kinda slow. Is that what is going on this year?

My horse takes offense to being called slow. Its okay Beast, I love you at least.

I disagree, would you call the horses in Skyfall's Derby slow? And Wish Upon A Star (another filly) was 5th in that race. Or, Owl Let You Know beat a field that included The People's Horse, I wouldn't consider them slow.
