Mendelssohn was coming in at 5/1 odds of winning the 2018 Kentucky Derby early on.

WHY MENDELSSOHN CAN WIN THIS YEAR'S KENTUCKY DERBY

Perhaps no horse was more impressive in his final prep race than Mendelssohn, who won the UAE Derby by a whopping 18½ lengths. He was purchased for $3 million for a reason, and trainer Aidan O’Brien is regarded as one of the world’s best.

WHY MENDELSSOHN CAN'T WIN THIS YEAR'S KENTUCKY DERBY

UAE Derby winners have an awful history in the Kentucky Derby, going 0 for 9 since 2002. The best finish was by China Visit in 2000 (sixth). How will he handle the quarantine at Churchill Downs after his long trip from overseas?
