Hofburg odds to win the 2018 Kentucky Derby were at 16-1. Odds were previously at 20-1.
POST POSITION POSSIBILITIES
There have been four winners from the number 9 post position. Riva Ridge (1972); Venetian Way (1960); Tomy Lee (1959); Count Turf (1951).
THE GOOD
With just three career starts, he seems to have plenty of room to improve after his second-place showing in the Florida Derby. Trainer Bill Mott isn’t one to enter the Kentucky Derby with a subpar contender. He enjoyed an impressive 2nd place finish in the Grade 1 Florida Derby. He is also trained by Hall of Famer Bill Mott.
THE BAD
With just three career starts, does he have enough seasoning to compete against 19 other horses. He seems to have reached “wise-guy” status, which usually is a death knell.
