Bettor's Edge

By Jeremy Plonk

Up-and-down in 2019, the Xpressbet Fountain of Youth showed his best in victory, while he settled for a modest third in his final prep with a bad pace set-up behind Maximum Security. The Xpressbet Florida Derby has produced a record 24 winners of the Kentucky Derby, including Always Dreaming 2 years ago among 6 history-makers since just 2001. But no horse has lost the Florida Derby and rebounded to win in Louisville since Go For Gin in 1994. Two-time Kentucky Derby winner John Velazquez opts to ride Code of Honor over Sunland Derby winner Cutting Humor. Trainer Shug McGaughey saddled 2013 Kentucky Derby winner Orb and 1989 runner-up Easy Goer.
