"The post draw didn't matter to us a ton, but we're happy being more toward the outside for sure," trainer Dog O'Neill said. "The whole team is pumped up. We're just very optimistic for a big day."

The number 13 post position has yielded four winners in Kentucky Derby history and only a single victor since 1999.   

Nyquist is undefeated in seven races in his career.
