LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Cover your right eye.
Now imagine being loaded into a starting gate alongside the best thoroughbreds in the land. The gate flings open and just ahead and to either side, 19 other horses are jostling for position as the first turn draws near. Then add 100,000 or so railbirds in full roar, throwing off as many decibels as a jet engine on takeoff.
That's how Saturday's Kentucky Derby will look and sound to a long gray colt with one good eye named Storm in May.
