Journalism is going to be tough to beat. If he loses it’ll be because of bad luck. 

Wrong. He just got beat.

My O My. Me also. Put up the money for the box then put up a ten on sovereignty, Cbull, and Gambit. Won seventy which got me to even.

Coming around the stretch with Journalism mowing them down, I thought he had it. At least the system held up - top 2 in the major preps. Props to Sovereignty for finding speed he'd never showed before. Had the field down to him and Journalism... and chose poorly.  Chalk up another top Derby finish for jockey Flavian Prat on Baeza. Dude can ride.

He came in 2nd so not to shabby. I thought they was all going to get bunch up like last year with that many horses and didn't happen to much.

I also took Baeza at the last min just for $2 cause like him too. Got a No Sweat bet on FD and showing Journalism for $10 I'm cool and enjoy it. As always love your write ups each year and thanks!

Not sure if this is on page 1, but every horse yesterday in the final race was a descendant of Secratariat.
