This was a surprise entrant, much less runner-up in, the UAE Derby. California-based Peter Miller rolled the dice with a trip to the desert and came back with a big check and enough points to play in the Kentucky Derby. Not consistently a front-runner, he’s flashed the speed on occasion that indicates he could be used as the Derby’s pacemaker in the absence of a committed speedball. No horse exiting the UAE Derby has finished better than fifth in the Kentucky Derby. Trainer Peter Miller makes his second Derby appearance (2011, Comma to the Top, 19th). He loses jockey Joel Rosario to Game Winner.
