AMERICA’S TOP THOROUGHBREDS FOR FEBRUARY 6, 2023

With February upon us, we’re deep into the prep schedule for this year’s Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve May 6 at Churchill Downs. Four stakes races offering qualifying points for the Kentucky Derby have been held since the last edition of this blog on Jan. 10, and aside from that, several other exciting prospects have gained notice in maiden or allowance races.

Welcome to 2023 Kentucky Derby Prospect Snapshots, where we’ll take a look each week at a recent winner on the Triple Crown trail, usually from the Road to the Kentucky Derby schedule from which the racehorses earn points toward qualifying.

Saturdays are alright with Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott and jockey Junior Alvarado this winter in South Florida.
