No maiden has ever hit the board in the @KentuckyDerby since 1937. Ocelli gave us the thrill of a lifetime but just came up 80 yards short at 70-1. He will always be a winner in our eyes, maiden or not! We love you Ocelli! ❤️ @TwinSpires 🎥 @owneycreative

I think this horse is wildly slept on
Virginia Derby winner INCREDIBOLT is one of two Riley Mott horses running in this year’s @KentuckyDerby. Can he bring the younger Mott a Derby win the year after his father won with Sovereignty?
