5. Exaggerator
Derby Points/Rank: 16 points – 4th
Race Record: (6) 3-1-0
Earnings: $983,120
Breeding: Curlin – Dawn Raid
Owner: Big Chief Racing, LLC
Trainer: Keith Desormeaux
Last Race: Delta Downs: Grade 3 Delta Downs Jackpot on 11/21/15, Finished 1st
Analysis: Last time out he defeated Sunny Ridge to win the Delta Jackpot, and Sunny Ridge returned this weekend to win the Grade 3 Withers at Aqueduct so Exaggerator’s form was flattered a bit. Solid horse up to this point, and raced in all the big ones as a 2 year old. Should have a solid foundation heading into this year.
