The first Saturday in May means it's time for the annual 'Run for the Roses'. Saturday at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, a field of 20 will compete in the 136th Kentucky Derby. The field is made up of 19 boys and one girl, Devil May Care, who will break from the middle of the pack. The Filly will be ridden by John Velazquez and will add blinkers for Saturday's race. The two favorites in (today's) race are Lookin At Lucky, 3-1 and breaking from the rail. And then there is Sidney's Candy, 5-1 and breaking from the far outside. And while the post positions don't necessarily drop them from consideration, the 1 and 20 post positions can be disastrous in a 20 horse field/Scott Coen, Mass Live.com. More here.
