Last updated: 3/10/11 3:27 PM


John Asher, Churchill Downs’ vice president of racing communications and
noted Kentucky Derby (G1) historian, will be the featured guest on Friday
night’s “Kentucky Derby Trail” live chat between 7-9 p.m. (ET). Moderated by
five-time National Handicapping Championship qualifier Tim Holland, the
question-and-answer chat will discuss this weekend’s Kentucky Derby and Oaks
future wagers, and much more.

UNCLE MO (Indian Charlie), the early favorite for the Kentucky Derby, will be
a topic of conversation as the unbeaten juvenile champion makes his anticipated
three-year-old debut in the Timely Writer S. at Gulfstream Park, and a couple of
key prep races, the Tampa Bay Derby (G2) and San Felipe S. (G2), are also scheduled
for Saturday.

Brisnet.com’s roster of horse racing experts are always on hand for the
weekly discussion, and other guests this year have included Jill Byrne, Claire
Novak and Dick Powell.
