  • BrianBarnett · Nively Done. One year I will knock that Derby Pick 4 down. AT $31K obviously few people did this year. I have a feeling most of those people that did collect paid a nice price for their deep tickets · 22 days ago ·

  • aj.mindiola · Caracortado has a legitimate shot at defeating Goldikova at the Breeders Cup Turf mile. I’ve seen every race this horse has run and he is a monster on the turf. · 427 days ago ·

Champion Informed Decision and multiple Grade 1 winner Court Vision are two of many stars among the entrants for five graded stakes on the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (G1) undercard on Saturday at Churchill Downs.Read More
  • medlocke · Informed Decision looked to me like a mare that had a little bit of lay-off rust in losing her first start of 2010 at Keenland in the Vinery Madison Stakes. Informed Decision had been undefeated over synthetic surfaces until her recent 3rd place finish. But she's one of those rare one's that can perform equally well over a conventional dirt surface as well. She won the 09' Human Distaff in the slop at Churchill Downs, if you'll remember. A lot of horses are slow starters after a lay-off. Gio Ponti springs to mind, losing his first start of 2010 at Tampa Bay Downs to Karelian. But came back in his second start to run an amazing Dubai World Cup, finishing 4th, but having to go extremely wide to get that. So it was a very quality run for him. I expect Informed Decision to bounce back with a win on Derby day. IMO. · 762 days ago ·
