2024 Kentucky Derby Tips
Chad C Brown has seen Sierra Leone land a victory in each of his previous two races and there could be more to come in the Kentucky Derby. The three-year-old was able to claim a victory at Keeneland in early April when fending off the challenge of nine other runners in the Toyota Blue Grass Stakes, with the 5/3 favourite obliging on this occasion.
Previously to this April success came a February triumph in the Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds where the 27/10 favourite was able to claim a narrow success over Track Phantom, with the bookies certainly wary of taking on a horse with solid credentials. However, Fierceness is also a fantastic talent that boasts solid form.
Todd Pletcher trains a runner who was eye-catching at Gulfstream Park last time out, with the three-year-old sent off as the 11/10 favourite in the Florida Derby before claiming a massive thirteen length success. This delighted his backers and came after disappointing as the 1/5 favourite in the Holy Bull Stakes.
The Kentucky Derby isn’t quite a two-horse race and Forever Young arrives at Churchill Downs boasting a 100% record, with the Japanese raider having been solid in his career so far. The latest success came at the end of March when the horse was able to secure a two-length triumph at Meydan after previously winning a big money encounter at Riyadh.
