It kicks off at 6

In just a few hours, Churchill Downs will be starting the 2011 edition of Kentucky Derby fever. Most people like to get the earliest possible start, I like to wait until the gates open. Which will be just a few hours.

To celebrate, properly, and with recognition that the last three Kentucky Derby winners have been the Ability-X Ratings "Simple" pick. The All-tracks edition for today is available for $1. Nowhere near its immense value, but who has that kind of cash anyway?

 I will be offering my perspectives on all the festivities throughout the week, and today's special is just the beginning. There is plenty more where that came from, and I expect to whip it all out as this special week progresses.
