5/6/17 Churchill Downs Kentucky Derby Pick Four - Results

Race 9 - The American Turf - # 6 Arklow (Final Odds 15.00) - No Selection
Race 10 - The Churchill Downs - # 9 Limousine Liberal (13.20) - No Selection
Race 11 - The Turf Classic - # 2 Divisidero (3.50) - "B" Selection
Race 12 - The Kentucky Derby - # 5 Always Dreaming (4.70*) - "B" Selection

So after all the talk about this being a wide open Kentucky Derby (including from Your's Truly) the Post Time Favorite wins for the fifth year in a row.  Congrats to the connections of Always Dreaming; especially to former NYRA track announcer Tom Durkin, who is part of the Always Dreaming ownership group, and perhaps the greatest ambassador that the sport of horse racing has.  It's hard to be too upset when something this good happens to someone that nice; so as regards our play, we'll just shrug our shoulders and say,

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Kentucky Derby Pick Four sequence of  6 / 9 / 2 / 5  were rewarded with a payout of $3,441.40 for their fifty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
