Description:
..but hey, California Chrome won the SA Derby with #5. Plus, the green saddle towel matches the DAP silks, cap & blinkers. #LooksGood

...Tell me that #5 doesn't look good with #CaliforniaChrome. Chrome has his outfit ready & matching for the #kyderby pic.twitter.com/eqeGB9LMj4

So @WickedColt drew the 20 hole. Guess it's time to follow Big Browns footsteps & show em how it's done from the outside. #wickedstrong

California Chrome draws No. 5 for #KyDerby. Jockey Victor Espinoza won from same slot in 2002 with War Emblem. #GoChrome

Vinceremos draws post 9 for the @KentuckyDerby, he'll be carrying the bloodlines of Pioneerof the Nile. @jazz3162 @JustinZayat @WinStarFarm

Fascinating draw developments as speed pulling slots down inside and late runners all widest from the gate..

Ride On Curlin is in No. 19. If Calvin Borel is going to get to the Bo-rail, he's got a long way to go to get inside.

I really don't think 20 is a substantial problem for Wicked Strong
— Pat Cummings (@DubaiRaceNight) April 30, 2014
Wicked Strong draws the 20. No problem. He closes and Big Brown won from out there.

Post positions are WAY overrated. Have been involved with some huge efforts/wins from "bad" posts. AK in Derby/World Cup, Nehro in Derby.

Great post for Samraat will wearing the same saddle cloth as the last NY bred to win, Funny Cide.

California Chrome avoided deadly posts but all other posts are meaningless for him. It's all about how he breaks and where he sits vs pace.

The last time the #KyDerby had a 5-2 morning line favorite - Bellamy Road, 2005.

The one and only 5-2 morning line favorite to win the #KyDerby - Carry Back, 1971.
