Today on HorseCenter, your co-hosts Brian Zipse and Matt Shifman continue their early coverage of the 2021 Kentucky Derby with a look at a trio of potential stars, as well as a preview of Saturday's Los Alamitos Futurity and Friday's Springboard Mile.

Three noteworthy 2-year-olds recently broke their maidens at first asking. Todd Pletcher sent Prime Factor out to win his maiden at Gulftream Park by almost nine lengths. Bob Baffert’s Life is Good beat a field at Del Mar by 9 1/2 lengths. While at Laurel, Manor House beat a field of maidens by 12.

Enjoy this weekend’s racing and, as always, thanks for watching the show.
