I Want Revenge - Non Runner

Considered a late starter by many, this top grade colt has won his last two starts in fine style, including a Grade One. In theory he has a bit to find with Pioneer Of The Nile, having lost twice to him as a juvenile, but his win on April 4th in the Grade One Wood Memorial, which qualified him for the Derby was highly impressive and very quick. He is currently a 9/2 bet in the Kentucky Derby Odds.

Dunkirk

This horse was second behind Quality Road in the Florida Derby, a race who's winners have a great record in the Kentucky Derby and one which has produced several winners. Although only second, Quality Road has been pulled out of the race due to injury, which could leave the way open for Dunkirk. He is around 11/2 in the Kentucky Derby Odds.

Pioneer Of The Nile

Pioneer Of The Nile, winner of four straight Stakes races, including the Santa Anita Derby in March is looking in great form ahead of the Kentucky Derby. His trainer, Bob Baffert, who as trained three winners of the race before, is delighted with his gallop work and is confident about his chances. He is currently third favourite for the race with odds of around 13/2 in the Kentucky Derby odds where bookmakers are reporting continued support for his chances.

Fresian Fire

Likely tp go off favourite for the Derby on May 2nd after winning the Louisiana Derby on 14th March. In so doing he recorded the widest ever margin victory in the race. The win extended his winning streak to three and has given trainer, Larry Jones every reason to be confident of landing the Derby a race where his horse have finished second twice in succession. He is fourth favourite at 8/1 in the Kentucky Derby Odds.
