Combatant: The only horse to compete in all 4 stakes routes on the Oaklawn trail to the Triple Crown, this consistent colt has never missed a superfecta finish in his 7-race career. That certainly would be tested in the Kentucky Derby, where the 1-1/4 miles distance appears beyond his best trip despite being a come-from-behind runner going shorter trips. He tends to make a menacing move and flatten out late, signaling he’s likely best at a mile or 1-1/16 miles. Sire Scat Daddy also favored Justify, the ballyhooed Irish invader Mendelssohn and consistent brawler Flameaway in this year’s lineup.
