Dornoch is a full brother to 2023 Kentucky Derby winner Mage.
“That’s a good spot,” trainer Danny Gargan said of Dornoch being placed in post position 4. “He came out of the 3 hole in the Fountain of Youth and the Remsen. He will come out of there running and make his way through.”
Saez, the jockey, is a three-time Blue Grass Stakes winner with triumphs aboard Tapit Trice (2023), Essential Quality (2021) and Brody’s Cause (2016). Six other jockeys have won the Blue Grass Stakes in consecutive years.
Dornoch is 10th on the Derby leaderboard with 60 points.
— 5—Good Money (Chad Brown, Javier Castellano). Morning line odds of 20-1.
Good Money is 1-0-0 in two career starts. The win came in a maiden special weight race in January at Tampa Bay. Good Money finished fourth in the Grade 3 Tampa Bay Derby last month.
Castellano, the jockey, won the 2019 Blue Grass Stakes aboard Vekoma.
The horse is 48th on the Derby leaderboard with 10 points.
— 6— Just a Touch (Brad Cox, Florent Geroux). Morning line odds of 7-2.
Just a Touch is 1-1-0 in two career starts, including a second-place showing in the Grade 3 Gotham Stakes last month at Aqueduct. Both of his starts have come on sealed sloppy tracks.
