Magnum Moon odds to win the 2018 Kentucky Derby were at 8-1. Odds were previously at 6-1.
POST POSITION POSSIBILITIES
Five winners from here #16
THE GOOD
He’s perfect in four career starts and has a trainer in Todd Pletcher who knows how to win this. His drifting issues down the stretch aside, the Arkansas Derby performance was impressive.
Post #16 is hardly ideal for a horse that won his last race on the lead, but he's shown that he can back, too, and no one except Saez has ridden him in a race, notes forbes.com.
THE BAD
Like Justify, he must overcome the “Curse of Apollo.” Magnum Moon did not race as a 2-year-old, and Apollo (in 1882) is the only horse to win the Derby after not racing at 2.
