As of this writing all the horses who have a chance of running in the 2010 Kentucky Derby have been set. With the exception of Lookin at Lucky and Sydney's Candy, I'm comfortable with my list.

While Sydney's Candy is my sentimental favorite, I think this field is going to eat him up. As for Lookin At Lucky, the questions seem to be can Lucky and Gomez stay out of trouble, and how will he take to track. Lookin At Lucky is a stout horse, but I can't see him not finding trouble in a twenty horse field of great horses.

For me the question of the who to bet is answered. Now the big question is how to bet them! I'll post my probable bets next Tuesday.

My Crazy Pick of the Moment for The Triple Crown

I'm still not seeing anything that looks like a horse that could go "all the way." I'm sticking with Ice Box for now.
