Derby Elsewhere

“Just Add Bourbon”, entrepreneurs showing some southern hospitality in Louisville (Mary Pumphrey)

Just in case any new readers come over from the Times (none have yet) in search of Derby reading, I thought I’d show some hospitality and offer up some Derby links.

Fellow TBA-er Michael of Curb My Enthusiasm is “on the ground” in Louisville and shares my non-bandwagon position on Big Brown. Here’s a recent post of the contenders tentative work schedules. Keep an eye out for regular reports.

Jessica over at Railbird, also a fellow TBA-er, is having Ed DeRosa of the Thoroughbred Times as a guest poster from Louisville. Keep an eye out over there as well.

There’s a new blog on the scene that I’m really enjoying, and not only for the hilarious name… Take Off That Silly Ass Hat is specifically a Derby blog, and a good one at that.

Next week look for a few guest posters here at GbG to share their thoughts on the Derby (great idea Jessica, thank you!!) (and no pressure Charles… you’ve been training forwardly!)
