Derby Day

Today is the Kentucky Derby, held every year on the first Saturday of May. It's known as 'The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports' and that's not a bad nickname. If you've never watched it, do yourself a favor and find yourself near a TV at 5p (central) and tune it to NBC. To add to the fun, pick a horse to cheer for. Here's a list (in order of where they will start in the gates, numbers listed after the name are odds to win):
1 Cool Coal Man 20-1
2 Tale of Ekati 15-1
3 Anak Nakal 30-1
4 Court Vision 20-1
5 Eight Belles 20-1
6 Z Fortune 15-1
7 Big Truck 50-1
8 Visionaire 20-1
9 Pyro 6-1
10 Colonel John 4-1
11 Z Humor 30-1
12 Smooth Air 20-1
13 Bob Black Jack 20-1
14 Monba 15-1
15 Adriano 30-1
16 Denis of Cork 20-1
17 Cowboy Cal 20-1
18 Recapturetheglory 20-1
19 Gayego 15-1
20 Big Brown 3-1
The FP Gal has chosen 'Denis of Cork'. I'm going with 'Pyro'.

Good luck!
