If it was me, I'd go with Verrazano. Experienced jockey, excellent trainer, LGS know what they are doing.

Normandy Invasion is the sexy pick. Don't fall for it.

Yea actually seems like a less people than normal standing on the infield. Suppose with the weather a rainy mess it's keeping people away.

Not quite as fun I suppose.

A crowd watches Orb getting washed in the barn area during the morning training for the 2013 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs.




You can just feel the excitement in the air. Watching a horse get washed.
Good times.
