The Kentucky Derby is today! I know I'm excited. Are you excited?!
I like the following horses (jockey, trainer) in the following order: 8 Journalism (Umberto Rispoli, Mike McCarthy); 21 Baeza (Flavien Prat, John Shirreffs); 18 Sovereignty (Junior Alvarado, Bill Mott); 7 Luxor Cafe (Joao Moreira, Noriyuki Hori).
Here's the complete list of entries (minus numbers 4 (Rodriguez) and 10 (Grande), who scratched, plus 21 (Baeza) who will now be running): All entries in post position order.
Here's last year's photo finish <"derby-winner-mystik-dan-df66ccac9c3e58d6607109e04c88d94a-1240x827.webp">, and Rich Strike (80-1 longshot) winning it in 2022 and completely ruining my superfecta (first four finishers) <"derby-winner-rich-strike-c7a5d2f5ade4ad555258e458d70600dd-2047x1658.webp">.
I like Journalism too.
