Churchill Downs Race 12 - Kentucky Derby Presented By Woodford Reserve Stakes
RENEGADE (1) was an effortless winner last time over 1811m in the G1 Arkansas Derby at Oaklawn Park (Dirt), scoring by 4 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead. Leading contender. COMMANDMENT (6) continued a hot streak of form, winning over 1811m in the G1 Florida Derby at Gulfstream Park (Dirt) last start to make it four straight. Looks suited by the longer journey and can get the job done again. FURTHER ADO (18) pushed forward and was a determined winner by 11 lengths over 1811m in the G1 Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland (Dirt) last time out. Will be in this for a long way. SO HAPPY (8) is putting together some solid results. Finished third in the G2 San Felipe Stakes at Santa Anita (Dirt) two starts back then scored by 2.75 lengths last time out over 1811m in the G1 Santa Anita Derby (Dirt). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at Santa Anita in the G1 Santa Anita Derby on April 4 over 1811m, 2.75 len behind So Happy with 56kg at $2.20. The start before that favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose at Santa Anita G2 San Felipe Stakes March 7 over 1710m defeating Robusta with 54.5kg at $9.10. Definite winning chance. Keep safe.
