Default This kids got serious Derby fever!

I love his passion for the game at an early age, but it's still hard not to laugh a little.

I think Desormeaux killed himself doing the flying dismount.

And we all thought that Blackthroatedwind wouldn't give out his Derby picks until the post position draw.

In all seriousness what are the chances that Pillow Pants wasn't involved in this? I was just waiting for the trainer was the exercise rider for Easy Goer jokes at any moment. When he said "Big Brown is followed by an eager Tomcito who's got more pace today than usual" I almost died laughing.

That video keeps busting me up, I love when he introduces Denis of Cork and how he puts the emphasis on Cork.

This kid has just inspired one of my bets on Derby day. I will do a $5 straight tri Big Brown with Pyro with Colonel John.

What the hell.

that's pretty funny/cute stuff. About as good a pre-race analysis as I've seen!!

I can't believe

-Denis of Cork survived that hellacious fall in the post-parade. Surprised the vet let him run after a horizontal fall like that.

-Colonel John's diagonal move in the stretch was not some sort of foul. He really came out in front of that horse.

-After his dismal effort in the Lexington, shocked Tomcito got in. Must have been the shoes.

Very funny video. Good for the kid to get so excited.

yeah, I agree. I wonder if the kid is related to someone in the business. (or a serious horse player).. he knew a lot of terms you wouldn't expect someone his age to know (I have no idea how old the kid is, just guessing he's 10 or so)

So too does Tom Durkin. He wishes he could call a close race like this kid.

Hes dreaming if he thinks Pyro is going to be favored over Big Brown. Who can blame him though? He obviously is planning to make a big play on Big Brown and wants the best price possible.
Whats up with including Tomcito and not Bob Black Jack? LOL!

When I was growing-up, I used to "play" horse racing all the time. If only you could have seen some of the stuff I did. But, its what turned me on to race calling and here I am.

Who would of thought that speed would hold on marble! The kid has a real future, he is already better that Battaglia.
