00:06jockey journalism is the favorite as of right now yeah journalism come back for the big jays
00:12a seven to two price but dumsey as you look at the favorites with the shortest numbers
00:17as you look at this year's field what are some of the main storylines for you
00:22entering the 2025 kentucky derby look journalism rightfully so the top choice in the betting and
00:29will go off as the post-time favorite the only knock that i can come up with against journalism
00:34is you look at some of the races that we exit and there's only been on one occasion where journalism
00:40has beat more than five competitors five other horses what's different about the kentucky derby
00:45there are 20 horses going into the starting gate these are three-year-olds not with a lot of
00:50racing experience start number five start number six so i think that could actually hurt the chances

01:01the two-year-old champ in citizen ball citizen ball trained for bob baffet now bob baffet whether you
01:07like him you hate him he is an icon in this sport he is a hall of fame conditioner and he has two very
01:13live chances coming into this race citizen ball is one of those what we saw last season earlier this

01:31because journalism took the edge over him coming in and out that lead out lead in prep race i think
01:36citizen ball for bob baffet after a three-year suspension chasing something very special a seventh
01:43win right here in the kentucky derby watch out for citizen ball sitting at 20 to 1 on the morning line
01:49it's not often that i like going against favorites but i just think with the circumstances at that
01:55kind of price journalism for michael mccarthy could be a little vulnerable coming into the big race on
02:00saturday
