2017 Kentucky Derby Predictions: Girvin
Girvin odds of winning the 2017 Kentucky Derby were at 20-1. There are predictions for Girvin to perform well at this Saturday’s Derby, especially starting from one of the better post positions. Scroll down for the latest odds
From Southern Standard:
The colt topped the Derby leaderboard with 152 points earned in prep races. But the Louisiana Derby winner has a crack in his right front hoof that has compromised his training in the last week. Trainer Joe Sharp has used a special shoe, a hyperbaric chamber and therapeutic waters to get Girvin in shape to run on Saturday. Sharp is married to retired jockey Rosie Napravnik, who exercises the colt and is her husband's assistant. Girvin has won three of four starts, with his only loss on turf. His jockey is Hall of Famer Mike Smith, who has a reputation for winning big-money races. Smith has never ridden Girvin, but he picked up the mount after Mastery, his top Derby contender, got hurt.
