Odds to Win the 2015 Kentucky Derby: Mubtaahij

The odds to win the Kentucky Derby Saturday for Mubtaahij were set at 8/1. 

The New York Times brings up a valid point about Mubtaahij:

Mubtaahij has some fans excited after he won a $2 million race in Dubai by eight lengths. But the field that day was suspect, and horses shipping from overseas do not have a good record in the Derby.

The Wall Street Journal calls Mubtaahij a “mystery horse”.

Asked about an ideal scenario for Mubtaahij in the race on Saturday, (trainer Mike) de Kock said he’d like to avoid speed duels and sit back about 5 or 6 lengths off the lead before closing. “If he can deal with that 400 to 600 meters of frenzy, he’ll be all right,” he said.

Mubtaahij was not always a rising star. He ran “dismally” in England at first, then dramatically shifted the plot after he was transferred to Dubai. De Kock wanted to run the horse in a turf race for maidens, horses who have never won, but there were none at the time.

“I don’t think he’s run with as many horses ever. He seems to handle the kick back very well and whatever is thrown back at him,” said de Kock. “Mentally he should be fine.”
