Racing Dudes Top 20 Kentucky Derby Rankings #7

6. Practical Joke

Derby Points/Rank: 34 – 5th

Race Record: (5) 3-1-1

Earnings: $815,800

Breeding: Into Mischief – Halo Humor

Owner: Klaravich Stables, Inc, and William Lawrence

Trainer: Chad Brown

Last Race: Grade 2 Fountain of Youth Stakes, Finished 2nd

Analysis: A solid 3-year-old debut effort for the him in the Fountain of Youth, finishing second to Gunnevera.  He made a monster middle move around the turn to take the lead, but then hit the wall a little bit down the stretch.  He could have been a little short, or he just may not like longer distances.  That’s the big question that we’ll find out next time out, but for now, I think he has the talent and back class to stay ranked fairly high.
