Racing Dudes Top 20 Kentucky Derby Rankings #2

 3. Mor Spirit

Derby Points/Rank: 24 Points – 2nd

Race Record: (5) 3-2-0

Earnings: $378,400

Breeding: Eskenderyea – Im a Dixie Girl

Owner: Michael Lund Peterson

Trainer: Bob Baffert

Last Race: Santa Anita: Grade 3 Robert B. Lewis Stakes on 2/6/16, finished 1st

Analysis: There is no doubt I expected Mor Spirit to win the Robert B. Lewis, but I did not expect him to do so with relative ease.  Jockey Gary Stevens basically let the horse get a bit of education in the race as he could have won by many more lengths.  This horse is still developing, and may not have it all figured out yet which is a scary thought.  Baffert has another legit Derby contender!
