Talking 2016 Kentucky Derby Contenders with Norm Casse (VIDEO)

Team Casse enjoyed a banner year in 2015, highlighted by a spectacular Breeders’ Cup weekend that saw the barn win both the Breeders’ Cup Mile with Tepin, and the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf with Catch A Glimpse. Casse Racing is far more than just those two World Championship winning fillies, though, and this morning I had the chance to talk with top assistant trainer, Norm Casse about a number of the quality two-year-olds in their barn, that could join the 2016 Kentucky Derby trail in the coming months.

Watch now as Norm and I discuss several of their good ones, including Airoforce, who just missed in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf, and will have his first big dirt test next Saturday, as well as, Conquest Big E, who came out of his run in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile well, and will also be running at Churchill Downs on Saturday.
