Derby Picks 2008

Posted in General by John

I have studied the horses and I’m telling you one of these horses will win the derby. They are both not favored to win and would pay well if one was to wager.

I am choosing the philly #5 Eight Belles at 20-1 or #14 Monba at 15-1. Monba is a strong horse and my sentimental favorite. I used to go to the track with my Dad and my uncle every now and then and we always rooted for the grey or roan horse. To this day I always bet the grey horse. Something about the George Harrison fan in me or perhaps the way I always root for the underdog…But I am literally choosing the dark horse. Monba is a horse that stays even and toughs it out. He will not make a late break but will probably tough it out. If I had to pick another one I would pick Eight Belles. A philly has not won the derby in years but I watched a few of her races and she explodes down the back stretch.
