Kentucky Derby 2012 Rain Chances

If Friday was any indication, the Kentucky Derby 2012 could be a wet one, not to mention hot!!!

Some fans had to be evacuated on Friday at Churchill Downs due to stormy conditions and scattered severe storms are once again in the forecast for Saturday afternoon.

An official announcement advised those in the infield to seek cover as hail and lightning were anticipated around 5 pm, delaying the 10th race.

"Please carefully evacuate the infield until the storm has passed," read on-course screens.

More strong storms were hitting the Louisville area overnight with heavy rains expected over a prolonged period.

The so-called “mudders” have to be considered the best bets Saturday.  They include the two favorites Bodemeister and Union Rags along with the undefeated Gemologist.   El Padrino and Went The Day Well are also proven on the sloppy tracks.
