Good Magic odds to win the 2018 Kentucky Derby were at 8-1.  Odds were previously at 12-1.

POST POSITION POSSIBILITIES

He is racing from the number 6 post position, which has produced two winners in Derby history, the last one in 1993.

THE GOOD

Jason Frakes of the Louisville Courier Journal notes “It’s not the pick I would've made two weeks ago but Chad Brown and the E5 Racing folks over there have sort of sold me on that. I think he has looked incredible."

The third start of his 2-year-old campaign was the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, which Good Magic won and parlayed into the Eclipse Award for top juvenile male.

THE BAD

His Beyer Speed Figure numbers this year are a cut below the best in the field. The Blue Grass victory was nice, but how strong was that field?
