faba Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Congrats bman I took a beating with all my exacta bets- Derby especially is hard to get a good read with so many horses running- Preakness will show which are truly the top horses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DireJet38 Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Didn't bet on the derby, don't know much about horse racing, but when I'm in Saratoga I always go for Jerry Bailey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
