Kentucky Derby: The Picks

Since the collective horse racing knowledge of Harper and Spork Boy can fit on the head of a pin and still have room for an addition and a pool, here are this year's Kentucky Derby picks:

Harper's Picks:

1. Win: Noble Causeway
   
2. Place: Afleet Alex
   
3. Show: Bandini
   

Spork Boy's Picks:

1. Win: Sun King
   
2. Place: Bellamy Road
   
3. Show: Afleet Alex

Stay tuned for post-race analysis.

Well, no. But there will be sufficient gnashing of teeth if George Steinbrenner's horse, Bellamy Road performs well or even wins. Harper will not be pleased.

Post-Race Analysis (posted 5/8/05)
Um....we sucked. But Spork Boy gets the nod by virtue of calling Afleet Alex to finish third and Bellamy Road finishing seventh.
