2014 Triple Crown Thread.

Derby is today, I nearly missed it! Every year I try to bet 20 bucks or so. Nothing huge, just some long shot $1 non boxed trifectas.

Anyone have any favorites? I like Tapiture and Intense Holiday.

I'm gonna guess 15-20-5-8

edit; 140th run of the Derby today. One day I will see it live.

Cool...a rags to riches story. Announcer just mentioned that California Chrome's parents were an $8000 mom and $2500 dollar dad. Who needs millions?
