awesome! thanks a lot, I'm definitely gonna check that out....I just realized i have TVG in my cable package so I've been watching racing nearly round the clock this weekend!Steve Byk's weekday radio show is by far the best you're going to hear, Mac, and he puts it up on his site daily. I've been listening to his show on and off for nearly 10 years now.

Just go the broadcast archives section.
He has all the best trainers, handicappers, clockers, writers, pedigree experts, etc., on there all the time, and his shows obviously focus mostly on the Derby at this time of year.

Thanks a lot!! so much good stuff!Cheers Mac. If you're looking for Derby thoughts only on Steve's show guys like Johnny D, Steve Haskin, Ed DeRosa, James Scully, Jon White, etc., may be the best to listen to. But all the guests are going to be talking about the Derby over the next couple of weeks, especially in the last week before the race. I'm guessing clockers like Mike Welsch and Gary Young will also be back on the show this year giving out daily thoughts on how the Derby runners look in training up to the race as well. That can be quite useful.
Also, if you're thinking about playing some of the races you've been watching and want some free PP's, you can find some here;

It's probably best, T. I mean, there is a high probability that Hofburg will be in the race, but I wouldn't want your money to be dead on him since he does have a better chance than most of not being in the gates just because of the trainer. You guys generally find some good lines with the books anyways in the days immediately before the race, so who knows, you may still get a good 25/1 or even 30/1 price on him once you have assurance that he will in fact run.
Hofburg already down to 22-1 on 5dimes. Picking up steam early.
If not, and you're protected that way then I'd say sure. It's not every year when you're going to see an improving Florida Derby runner-up like Hofburg, whose also one of the horses better suited for the 10F distance, be offered up at 30/1. He's probably closer to 20/1 on the day of the Derby I'm thinking. Maybe even a touch below 20/1 since he has the looks of a horse who may pick up some late steam with the sharpies.
