Buttermilk’s Kentucky Derby Top Pick, what to look for!

Send us Fan Mail

“In these parts, luck is a slippery thing—more like a snake than a song. Folks will grip a rabbit’s foot ‘til the fur wears thin, or wear out a pew praying to a God they ain’t spoken to since the last hard winter. All for the hope that today, just today, their horse will outrun the devil waiting in the last turn.

They say a good horse is hard to find—harder still than a good man. And even the ones that shine like silver on race day can stumble when the thunder rolls in. Maybe it’s the blood, maybe it’s the break, maybe it’s just that some creatures are born unlucky and don’t know it till the gate swings open.”

“Today on Cornbread & Buttermilk, we’re stepping into that beautiful madness called the Kentucky Derby, where ladies wear their fortunes on their heads, men dream of riches over ice-cold juleps, and the track runs not just with horses but with hope—and more than a little heartache.”
