So, we all got royally fucked by Mine That Bird, didn’t we? Yes, we did. Here’s a tip. Take all the 20 – 1 through 50 – 1 and just put $2 across the board bets down on them. I just registered with tvg.com, so my bets will be in. There’s a small chance we’ll head over to Golden Gate Fields, and if we do, I’ll live tweet from twitter.com/thesportsbizzo. Oh, and, bet on “Rachel.” She’s badass. For time sakes, let’s just get into it. Word.

(Sorry RSS peeps, if you can’t see the table. Just come to the site.)

Post Horse Jockey Trainer Odds
1 Big Drama J. Velazquez D. Fawkes 10-1
2 Mine That Bird M. Smith B. Woolley Jr. 6-1
3 Musket Man E. Coa D. Ryan 8-1
4 Luv Gov J. Theriot D.W. Lukas 50-1
5 Friesan Fire G. Saez L. Jones 6-1
6 Terrain J. Rose A. Stall Jr. 30-1
7 Papa Clem R. Bejarano G. Stute 12-1
8 General Quarters J. Leparoux T. McCarthy 20-1
9 Pioneerof the Nile G. Gomez B. Baffert 5-1
10 Flying Private A. Garcia D.W. Lukas 50-1
11 Take the Points E. Prado T. Pletcher 30-1
12 Tone It Down K. Desormeaux W. Komlo 50-1
13 Rachel Alexandra C. Borel S. Asmussen 8-5

Seriously, $2 across the board on all longshots. Other than that, I’m going to only place a couple bets. Scratches withstanding, here they are: A $2 exacta box on Rachel Alexandra 8-5 and Pioneerof the Nile 5-1 (don’t let me down this time, Gomez). Another $2 exacta box on Rachel Alexandra 8-5 and General Quarters 20-1 (I like Julian Leparoux). A $2 trifecta box on Rachel Alexandra 8-5, Pioneerof the Nile 5-1, General Quarters 20-1. Lastly, my $2 superfecta box pick Rachel Alexandra 8-5, Pioneerof the Nile 5-1, Friesan Fire 6-1 and Mine That Bird 6-1.

Good luck everyone!
