Poll -- Which Derby Horse Has the Best Story Behind It?

Beginning next week, we'll start analyzing the Derby field closely and talking about our picks. For now, there is still some sorting out to do and workouts to watch.

In this blog, I present one very simple question: Which Derby horse has the best story behind it? In other words, if you could pick one horse to win Derby 135 based on his connections or racing history, who would it be? There are several feel-good stories to choose from this year, so it's a tough choice. Feel free to give reasons for your choice in the comment section.

Also, as a reminder, there will be live blog chats every day beginning Monday, April 27 on Bloodhorse.com. They will be hosted by several different writers on our staff, including myself. Look forward to chatting with you guys/gals all week long.
