Default 2015 Kentucky Derby?
Who are the favorites? Is there any chance of a Triple Crown Winner this year?

Who is your pick to win?

Dortmund. A Baffert horse from California who has a win over the Churchill surface which is huge for a 3 year old. His trainer also said that he likes roughing it up with other horses which should serve him well. In the Santa Anita Derby he threw a shoe at the start and still won. Oh Yeah I also have him at 10-1 in the Derby Futures.

Until they reduce the field to a more manageable 12-14 horses, I doubt we'll see another triple crown winner. With 20 horses, there is too much traffic and often the best horse doesn't win.

Doesn't it surprise you that with the thousands of sports fans here, there is no sports bar with big screens?. I don't mean 60 inch screens, everybody has those at home. I mean BIG,
