Todd Pletcher may be saving his best for last.

The four-time Eclipse Award-winning trainer, who has already dominated 3-year-old stakes action in 2010, has waited nearly two and a half months to unleash another one of his top guns. WinStar Farm’s Super Saver, romping winner of the Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes (gr. II) in his 2-year-old finale, will make his much-anticipated season debut in the $300,000 Tampa Bay Derby (gr. III) March 13. The son of Maria's Mon will face six rivals in the key 1 1/16-mile Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I) prep. Post time is slated for 5:30 p.m. EST.
