Field Set For Saturdays' 139th Kentucky Derby

ORB GOING OF AS A 7/2 CHALK FAVORITE IS A JOKE! HOW CAN YOU HAVE A FIELD OF TWENTY HORSES AND HAVE 1 HORSE GO OFF AT SUCH SHORT ODDS? IF HE CAN PULL IT OFF, GREAT! YOU HAVE TO USE ORB IN YOUR EXOTICS. ORB CAN BE BEAT AND THERE ARE HORSES IN THIS FIELD THAT CAN WIN WITH A PRICE. 

GO OVER TO KENTUCKYDERBY.COM FOR THE LATEST OR THE COURIER-JOURNAL FOR THEIR GREAT HORSE SPORTSWRITERS, THE BEST IN THE U.S.A.. MY ONLY REGRET IS, I CAN'T MAKE IT DOWN FROM THE YUKON TERRITORY THIS SPRING TO BE THERE AT CHURCHILL DOWNS MYSELF. IT SHOULD BE A RECORD CROWD THERE THIS YEAR! LAST YEAR IT WAS LIKE A 165,00+ SHOWED UP FOR THE GREATEST TRADITION IN AMERICAN SPORTS - THE KENTUCKY DERBY!

ONE OF THE GREATEST LINES I EVER HEARD AT THE TRACK WAS AT A 6 WAY PHOTO FINISH AND MY BUDDY LOOKED AT ME AND SAID, "PLEASE HOLD ALL TICKETS, THE JUDGES ARE EXAMINING THEIR TICKETS BEFORE MAKING IT OFFICIAL!" I LAUGHED MY ASS OFF WHEN HE SAID THAT, IT STILL MAKES ME LAUGH TODAY!
