Thank you very much for the kinds words, though I humbly say I've read many posts that far surpass my little slice of personal history.
I was fortunate enough to grow up in Louisville, which fostered my love for the Derby, and now as an adult be intimately involved in a working fashion with the Derby for the past quarter century. Some years that has really benefited my selections, like Animal Kingdom or Pleasant Colony, but also some bonehead picks too, like in my list.
I love this thread; it's very cool to see the wide range of picks people have made, and I'm sure when we all look back, there is plenty of "How the hell did I pick that horse?"
