Triple Crown

So, Who is going to win the Kentucky Derby?
This is a “Racing” board – so here is a small note to the
TBs…
Lets have a contest…
Guess the top 3 finishers…as a tie breaker guess the horse
that will finish last.
I will try to come up with a prize of some sort - don't get your hopes up though!

My pick to win is Street Sense with Scat Daddy and Hard Spun in the trifecta. Liquidity will finish last.

A suggestion: Post this on the yahoo forum for those that are not on this one...

Michael

I will try - I still have to get signed up on that one

OK, we still have close to 72 hours. Will you post a deadline for entries?
Glad you thought of a contest, they're fun and who's your pick?

1-Dominican
2-Curlin
3-Scat Daddy

last-Sedgefield

Scat Daddy & Street Sense are my picks.

Andy - who is going to finish 3rd and who is going to finish last?

Kidd

I think the 3rd place finisher will be Great Hunter, i like his looks and i think he is a good horse and could be a sleeper, and as far as picking the horse to finish last, hmm let's see i think either Zanjero or Sam P.

As always may they all have clean breaks and may the best horse win (come on Scat Daddy)

FREE EQUIBASE PP'S ARE UP AT:

GO STREET SENSE

i don't know much about TB's this year, so i'm just going to go with:
1st - Street Sense
2nd - Curlin
3rd - Circulary Quay
last....Sedgefield

Well, la-di-dah.......Everyone is enticing us with free pp's to try and take all our money

Ok here it goes my picks:
Street Sense
Tiago
Curlin

Deadlast
Cowtown Cat

Aw comeon now S.D., Cowtown Cat is a better horse than that or do you just think he'll run out of steam at this distance...............

P.S. But I do agree with your first pick. GO STREET SENSE......

HA - whatever smokey!!!

C'MON Nobiz Like Shobiz!!!!!!!

You know, I haven't been into racing in YEARS..not only that, I haven't seen these boys run, EVER. SO going off gut instincts, the PP and stuff I can read up on, here's my call:

One-Two-Three
Any Given Saturday
Nobiz Like Shobiz
Scat Daddy

Maybe..but I also think Tiago could be an upset, and Great Hunter, and Circular Quay.

Too many choices! :p And my pick for the trailer--- Bwana Bull or Sedgefield.

Meh. o.O Never made a more blind guess.

Cook - why are you dead in your pic?

Ahem - did you just list ALL 20 of the horses as possible upsets

Just givin you a hard time!!! Tell your Mum to get on over here NOW!

I want to play but I haven't followed the TB's like I usually do before the Derby (I always loose when I bet at the track so here is my guess for what it is worth what can you expect from someone with a paint in their pic )... Street Sense, Scat Daddy and then Curlin, and Sam P is going to loose it.... I like Cowtown Cat for the sleeper maybe 4th....(you got to have a cat in the name somewhere when you raise cutters great logic here haha)

Like some of the rest of you, I haven't been following these horses that closely this year like I usually try to, but here are my picks...
CURLIN
SCAT DADDY
STREET SENSE
NOBIZ LIKE SHOBIZ

and last
IMAWILDANDCRAZYGUY

DEADLINE for GUESSES is NOON on SATURDAY!

Guess Away Folks - we currently have 10 entries!!!

I'm going to take THESE entries and set up a point system...We'll have a contest for the Derby, Preakness & Belmont...there will be a small prize for the winner of each race contest and THEN we'll have our OWN Triple Crown winner!
Oh, and help me come up with prizes! Otherwise you're going to get a stick of gum or something! Nothing too big here guys...unless you want a horse

You are exactly right smokey there is really nothing else to take the lead so my guess is either Cowtown cat goes to the front and then gets eyeballed by another horse and runs completely out of steam or he eeks along on the lead and pulls a big upset. I think it will be one or the other and I think he will just run himself down. I don't think he is the worst horse in the field he just may be a victim of the pace scenario in my prediction. Of course I thought the same thing about War Emblem! LOL.
