Kentucky Derby Futures: Art Collector clear second choice
With a win in the Ellis Park Derby in his last start on Aug. 9, Art Collector has emerged as the second choice in the William Hill Kentucky Derby Futures. The son of Bernardini sits at 4/1 odds in the latest set of futures, after being at 7/2 last week and opening at 125/1.
The biggest mover in the futures was Pneumatic, trained by Steve Asmussen, who was the favorite in Saturday’s Pegasus Stakes at Monmouth, which offered 20 points towards the Kentucky Derby to the winner, and looked every bit of it, dispensing the field with ease. Pneumatic moved from 125/1 to 60/1 with the win after opening at 100/1. Pneumatic however; may target the Preakness instead of the Derby.
