    Anyone going to watch tomorrow? I've got stuff to do but I'm going to record it. My dad worked with race horses and my Grandfather owned some, I love watching the ponies run (don't bet)

    list of the horses running tomorrow.

    Dialed In is the 4-1 favorite.

    Inspired by the Royal Wedding, I'm hoping the hats worn by derby-goers are especially cracked out this year. I have to work so I won't be able to watch it but I expect to find a hat slide show somewhere on the internets.

    I like Uncle Mo but he's in the 18th slot which is pretty much the kiss of death. Aside from Dialed In, one long shot I think has a chance is Twice the Appeal. Right now 20-1 but is in a good spot at the gate and is a good closer. Should be a good race.

    Coverage is on now on NBC but the actual race isn't until about 6:15pm EDT.

    What a race! Big finish by Animal Kingdom after Nehro looked to be winning it with an eighth left.

    Animal Kingdom with an impressive win. What a closer.
