Episode Description: "Winning Ponies" Welcomes Author Attorney Milt Toby and Writer Handicapper Tom LaMarra
With his obscure breeding many are saying California Chome was the most improbable Derby winner. And Ironically Milt Toby has just penned a new book 'Canonero II - The Most Improbable Kentucky Derby winner.' It is quite a tale from the award winning writer. Milt Toby is an attorney, author, and photographer with a lifelong involvement in the horse industry. He has been writing professionally about horses since 1972, first as a staff writer and photographer for The Blood-Horse, and since 1984 as a freelancer for a number of publications. He will try to highlight the similarities between the two improbable Derby winners.
In the second segment Tom LaMarra of the Daily Racing Form will be our guest handicapper. He will be at the opening at Belterra Park (the old River Downs site) today. We will get his impressions of the opening day there and his thoughts of the Kentucky Derby. He will join John in handicapping the $200,000 gr. 2 Peter Pan Stakes, the $600,000 gr. 1 Man O' War Stakes both at Belmont and possibly the $100,000 gr. 3 Laz Barrera Stakes at Santa Anita.
