kentucky derby

The Preakness Stakes is not until May 21st, but there is no way Kentucky Derby winner Rich Strike is going to win. I am still shocked he won the Derby.

Saturday was a perfect example of how the Kentucky Derby can be so much fun and frustrating, all at the same time. In a 20 horse field anything is possible.

It's the only partnership like this so far in the state and representatives are hoping the perfect timing of it will kick it off as a success.

This morning on the show, Sean, Richie and I talked about amazing race horse names in honor of this weekend's upcoming Kentucky Derby. Some of my favorite include "Fat and Slow," "Heading to the Glue Factory," "Double Bypass," and "Baldylocks...
