Did anyone watch or bet on the Derby this year? I took a beating. All of the favorites seemed to be liked by too many people and hadn't raced in a field this big, so I stayed away from them. I ended up betting on Bandini, Greater Good, and Greeley's Galaxy. A lot of good that did me. <_< It was a fabulous race in my eyes. Closing Argument was 3 and 4 wide all the way around the track, yet still had enough in his tank to get up to second. Giacomo's win was sort of ironic. His Sire, I believe, was Holy Bull. Holy Bull was beat by a Zito trained horse in the Derby years back and Giacomo was able to beat 5 Zito horses. Everything comes full circle. I thoroughly enjoyed this race and can't wait for the Preakness in two weeks to see if Giacomo can continue his winnings.
