Surely you will have your favorite after having witnessed each and every one of the six tests of grade 1, which mark the top 10 of the aspiring Kentucky Derby, which means the most coveted race within the equestrian guild of the world and in itself They had doubts about it, it is enough to point out that for the first time a copy of the East will come to prove its fortune in the face of America’s finest.
The daring copy is called Master Fencer, who qualified in the tests held in Hong Kong. The Frenchman Julian Leparoux will be in charge of driving the Japanese specimen, while Ricardo Santana has already signed the commitment with Plus Que Parfait, the winner of the Derby of the Arab Emirates, an award that Mendelssohn defended bravely last year.
Bo Baffert, far from regretting the second consecutive defeat of Improbable, leaned over the Irad Ortiz Jr. ticket, to lead the sorrel and along with Roadster and Game Winner, seeking his third victory in the last five years in the first gem of the Triple Crown.
Jose Ortiz, will take the reins of Tacitus and veteran Mike Smith, what is it to think about, since both Roadster, winner of the Santa Anita Derby, and Omaha Beach, winner of the Arkansas Derby, showed sufficient qualities to be considered as the main protagonists of the equestrian event most seen worldwide.
It would be a fact that Mike is leaning towards the pupil of Bo Baffert, however it was so impressive what made Omaha Beach that that is the real reason why his pillow is going to dawn to pieces.
For the horse “unwanted”, they will jump some whips for having that mount, concretely the Gallic Florent Geroux who continues to miss the corpulent Gun Runner.
At this time, if there are no desertions or last minute drops, the numbers do not reach for some steeds that did not exceed 40 points, a magic figure to be able to enter the big leagues in 2019.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
