This week on HorseCenter hosts Brian Zipse and Matt Shifman handicap a trio of major Kentucky Derby preps: the Santa Anita Derby (G1) in California, the Wood Memorial (G2) in New York and the Blue Grass (G2) in Kentucky.
With the Run for the Roses just a month out, horses such as Roadster, Instagrand and Vekoma get their last chance at qualifying for the Derby. It'll take a victory or runner-up finish for each.
After the picks are made, stick around for some thoughts looking to last weekend's upsets in the Florida Derby (G1) and UAE Derby (G2).
We'll be out at Aqueduct (Matt) and Keeneland (Brian) on Saturday. Be sure to say hello and, as always, thanks for tuning into HorseCenter!
