How to bet the Kentucky Derby podcast: Episode 1, preparation

The Kentucky Derby is Saturday, May 6, at Churchill Downs, and for the next 12 days, Ed DeRosa of TwinSpires.com and Brisnet.com will discuss how to bet the world's most famous race with special guest handicappers.

The series kicks off with Scott Shapiro, who provides Daily Selections for Santa Anita Park and Indiana Grand Racecourse and will provide special Spotlight Selections for the Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby day full cards at Churchill Downs.

The pair discuss how they balance their selections with wagering strategy and try to avoid information overload--what sources they trust and what to ignore.
