2020 Kentucky Derby contender watch

[moses]

Anyone catch the 7th race at Gulfstream on Saturday?

Kiaran McLaughlin’s horse Spa City looks really good. Registered a 91 Beyer for the 9 furlong maiden breaker and looks like an absolutely massive horse with decent enough early speed and the ability to run all day. He could be a major player on the Derby Trail.

The runner up Unrighteous looked solid as well. It looked like there may have been some contact in the stretch and he may have made a move a little too early...so worth keeping an eye on, though I doubt he’ll be much of a price next time he runs. (Sidenote: Disappointed in Pletcher’s other horse in the race Mandate who looked to be working well last Fall but has not shown up on race day.)
