And there off or will be shortly. Grab your derby hat, coverage of the 141st Kentucky Derby on NBC starts at 4pm with pre-race coverage. Get the back story on all the horses and people that make the Kentucky Derby an American Tradition.

Each year I try to pick the winner. I never go with the favorite. I always try to pick a horse that could win but one the odds makers haven't put on top. I also always pull for a long shot to finish top 3. Win, Place or Show it is always exciting to have your horse at the wire when the race thunders to a finish.

So who are my top 3 and my long shot? I am going with Frosted, Materiality and Firing Line for my top 3. One of those fine horses should finish first, however don't take that to OTB because I haven't actually pick a winner in 10 years. This year might be different, not. So who is my pick for a long shot? War Story for sure but Keen Ice should be close behind.
