I know that the horse that Borel is on isn't that good. But with the horse getting the #3 position and the way he likes to hug the rail, I wouldn't bet against him. There aren't any sure things this year and 30-1 odds for the best jockey that the Derby has right now would be tempting.

Dumb question cuz I should know this, but do you currently live in Chicago or you just from here?

Whichever one it is, you've ever been down to Arlington Park?

Yea expect that 30-1 to disappear real fast. No matter where you go you are gonna get some value, I think it will end up a lot like it was last year with the favorite going off at 7-1 (not sure if that's what it was exactly).

Neither. :D Just loved the Bears since I was a wee youngin many, many moons past.

No, but I've been to several other tracks. Went to the Derby once when I lived in Kentucky.
