Track-record setter in the Sunland Derby, he came home exceptionally quick in that prep and punched his ticket to Louisvile. The Sunland Derby produced its first Kentucky Derby starter in 2005 and is best known for Mine That Bird’s 2009 upset victory and the 2015 runner-up by Firing Line. Trainer Todd Pletcher may be 2-for-52 in his Derby career, but he’s got a win (Always Dreaming) and third (Audible) in the past 2 years. He loses 2-time Derby winner John Velazquez in the saddle to Code of Honor. Pedigree-wise, there’s concern if this one will continue to run on, but his races to this point don’t reveal that as a flaw.
