The Holy Bull

The $250,000 Holy Bull Stakes runs this Saturday at Gulfstream Park. This race has produced Derby Winners in 1994 (Go For Gin) and 2006 (Barbaro). This is a 1 1/16 mile run with a field of 8, none of which are established Derby contenders. This is a Derby points race with the top 5 earning points as follows: 20-8-6-4-2.

Early favorites are Cyclone Mischief (3-1) and Lord Miles (5-2). Horse Racing Nation likes Legacy Isle (7-2). I'm going for a little longer odds with Win/Place tickets on Rocket Can (6-1) and Mr. Bob (8-1) as long as neither drops below 5-1. Let the fun begin!!!
