Kentucky Derby 2020 Preview
Tiz the Law, the hands-down morning-line favorite at 3-5, drew the 17th post, from where no horse has won the Kentucky Derby in its 146 runnings.
“I like it being on the outside,” Tiz the Law trainer Barclay Tagg said, according to BloodHorse. “I didn’t particularly want to be out that far, but we have been. He seems to handle everything that gets thrown at him. It gives you a chance if you have any speed at all.”
Tagg trained Funny Cide to victories at the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes in 2003, his last and only victories in American Classics until Tiz the Law claimed the 2020 Belmont Stakes in June.
Two horses were scratched ahead of the Saturday’s race. King Guillermo, who’d drawn the sixth post and had 20-1 morning-line odds, came down with a fever on Wednesday, trainer Juan Carlos Avila announced on Twitter a day later. A day after that, first-posted Finnick the Fierce’s team announced the scratch of the one-eyed gelding with 50-1 odds.
“I was not really happy how he trained this morning, and the state vet thinks he’s a little off,” Finnick the Fierce trainer and co-owner Rey Hernandez said, according to The Courier-Journal. “We decided to scratch him and bring him home and see if there’s anything we’re not seeing. The main thing is playing it safe for the horse.”
He added: “This is horse racing; it’s something you have to prepare for. You have really good days, and then you have days like this one. It just happens without expecting it. We’ll regroup and plan again.”
