The Kentucky Derby 2011
By Tommy Two-Thumbs (T2T)

1st place - Midnight Interlude.
Coming hot off the Santa Anita and Baffert's crew looks ready for a win today.

2nd place - Twice the Appeal.
I love Calvin Borel, and with the field wide open with injuries, he's gonna have an edge with experience.

3rd place - Santiva.
Well worked horse and a great run at Churchville Downs last November. Knows the track and will be comfortable settlling in early.

My Long Shot - Comma to the Top.

I'd bet $10 across the board on Comma to the Top ($30 total bet)
"...in the Derby race, $10 on #6, across the board."

$10 exacta box midnight/twice/santiva ($60 total bet)
"...in the Derby race, $10 exacta box on 15, 3, 12."

$10 WIN on Midnight
"...in the Derby race, $10 on 15 to win."
