Besides whether or not Kentucky Derby favorite Big Brown's Post 20 draw will affect his run, the next biggest unknown is the Louisville weather report. According to the Weather Channel there is about 30% chance of isolated thunderstorms over Louisville from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m., which could affect track conditions come post time. If the track gets wet, keep an eye on contenders Visionaire, Cool Coal Man, Smooth Air and Denis of Cork, all of which have won on wet tracks before. Pyro also finished second in the Breeders' Cup at muddy Monmouth Park.
