Here’s Ray Paulick’s Kentucky Derby Rankings, updated after this last weekend, March 20th.

Notice that D’ Funnybone, even though he won the Swale Stakes by 1 1/4 lengths, was dropped from the 20th position.  This is due to Pompa Jr., D’ Funnybone’s owner, saying that he’s not interested in pushing D’ Funnybone towards the Derby, but will likely point him towards the Preakness.

Swale Stakes – Gulfstream Park

Swale Stakes at Gulfstream Park features D' Funnybone

Keep an eye out for D’ Funnybone in this one!

Florida Derby – Gulfstream Park

Florida Derby at Gulfstream Park is one of the premier Kentucky Derby prep races

This is going to be one of the premier Kentucky Derby prep races.  Unfortunately, #1 ranked Eskendereya decided to pass on this race for the Wood Memorial.  But, we still have a loaded line-up with:

Radiohead - Won a  $58,000 Allowance at Gulfstream Park over Homeboykris, you can check out the video here.

Lentenor - Full brother to the late, great Barbaro.  Prepped on turf before this race, and the connections are hoping to see a big improvement.  You can check out his last race video here.

Rule - Big expectations from the Pletcher barn here!

Hear ye, hear ye!  What a weekend we have…well, this weekend!

Make sure to check back here for the race replays!

Road to the Kentucky Derby


The Fountain of Youth at Gulfstream Park this weekend hosts two potential Kentucky Derby favorites in Buddy’s Saint and Jackson Bend.  Or could an upset be in the brew with Eskendereya or Aikenite?


Will Ron the Greek have the same stretch move as he did last time out?  Or will Drosselmeyer put an end to this unknown’s Derby dreams?


This is also a stacked race!  D’ Funnybone, Wildcat Frankie, and A Little Warm will make this race incredibly interesting.  If you don’t have D ‘Funnybone or Wildcat Frankie on your Derby watch list, what are you thinking?!

Other Stakes

Two Derby horses from last year face off against a fun field which includes Giant Oak.  Don’t miss this one!
