The Kentucky Derby is this Saturday, May 7th. I am pretty sure that post time is 6:30, but I cannont find an official post time anywhere. I will not be near a computer on Saturday around post time so you will have to wait until Sunday to see how everyone else did.
What I want from you is win, place and show (for those of you who don't gamble: that's 1st, 2nd, and 3rd). What several people did last year was give me an alternate just in case one of to horses they picked ended up scratching on race day.
