Thread: Kentucky Derby (134th Running)

I figured I would post a thread on the Kentucky Derby coming up. I enjoy horse racing too. I love the Kentucky Derby. I never miss it actually.

Its this Saturday, May 3rd. Coverage starts on NBC at 4pm Eastern. Anyone betting ?

Here is a list of the top 20 contenders for the race. I love the names they give the horses..

1. Pyro
2. Tale Of Ekati
3. Colonel John
4. Gayego
5. Big Brown
6. Z Humor
7. Monba
8. Court Vision
9. Z Fortune
10. Adriano
11. Recapturetheglory
12. Smooth Air
13. Cool Coal Man
14. Anak Nakal
15. Eight Belles
16. Cowboy Cal
17. Visionaire
18. Big Truck
19. Bob Black Jack
20. Denis of Cork

Big Brown wins the Kentucky Derby.

Eight Belles got 2nd place but after the race, she hurt both front ankles and they euthanised her right on the track.

I thought that was strange and sad.
