The Kentucky Derby will be run for the 142nd consecutive time this Saturday at Churchill Downs. Today on a WFPL news special, we talked about who to watch in the Kentucky Derby and Friday’s Kentucky Oaks, and talk the Derby and the sport in general with our racing panel.
We were joined by former jockeys Donna Barton Brothers, now a racing analyst for NBC sports and Patricia "PJ" Cooksey, who’s now with the Kentucky Racing Commission; also Jonathan Lintner, who covers racing for the Courier-Journal; and Ed DeRosa, handicapper and blogger for TwinSpires.com.
