Re: Derby anyone?
I won't be watching in Kentucky but I will be at Arlington Park for the opening and will be watching the Derby from there.
I've got my 5 picked - Bodemeister, Gemologist, Take Charge Indy, I'll Have Another, and Well The Day Went.

Re: Derby anyone?
They need to switch the Derby and Belmont so I can go since I'm moving to Kentucky the week before the Belmont.

I am attempting to get a group together from this area to go down early Saturday morning. General admission, of course.
