I).Inaugural entries at the site at Thederbyblog.com include insights and race selections from two of Horse Power advisors and former jockeys Chris McCarron and Donna Barton Brothers, who is also an analyst on NBC's Derby coverage."At no other point in the year is racing more prominent across America than in the weeks leading up to the Kentucky Derby," notes Glenn Weber, Horse Power managing partner.
