While we want you to form your opinions and make your own picks, we also realize that you might be curious about who we like!
This year we’ve invited a few special guest cappers for Oaks and Derby day. Joining our regular cast of characters are Derek Brown of WirePlayers (@NJDerek), Ted Grevelis of Grevelis Racing / Owning Racehorses (@tlgrevelis) and Mellisa Nolan of KTA/KTOB (@KeeneGal).
We’ll do a mythical $2 win bet to see who ends up with with most “cash”, we’ll also keep track of who picks the most winners.
Adam Wiener ($18.20) and Jessica Chapel (19.40) came away with two winners but it was Melissa Nolan ($32.60) who ended up with the most money from her Derby pick. We hope you had a great two days… see you at the Preakness!

Love your web site.
In the big one, I’m going to go with a trifecta ticket – Creative Cause over Dullahan (I hope he likes dirt), Bodemeister and Daddy Nose Best. Giddy up. Good luck, all! :-)

And now on to the next question, who do you like in the Preakness? :)
I’m going to handicap the race hard, read this site, Plonk, Illman, Haskin, Beyer, etc., read the clocker reports and come up with a conclusion. And then I’m going to pick one of the horses that I didn’t pick so that I have a chance of hitting something. :-)
Rob, after thinking about your comment I put this post together:
