Hello everyone. Welcome to the 21st Century Thoroughbred.

Well, we’ve almost reached the end of the trail with only three major Kentucky Derby points races left to be run this Saturday: the Wood Memorial Stakes, the Blue Grass Stakes and the Santa Anita Derby.

All three of those races will be broadcast live on NBC and Peacock beginning at 4:30 ET. At Santa Anita Park, Messier has been tabbed the even money morning-line favorite in the Santa Anita Derby (G1). Post time is 5:30 p.m. ET.

Messier is a horse I profiled as a yearling at auction and with an A+++ Classic Champion Thoroughbred Profile® he has the best breeding of all the horses entered in this race.
