While any of the top contenders could emerge victorious, the prediction here is that Catching Freedom will cross the finish line first on Saturday evening.
A Brad Cox-trained colt, Catching Freedom has had a lot of success early in his racing career. He's won three of his five events, which includes a victory at his last race, the Louisiana Derby in March. In his two non-wins, he finished third and fourth.
Cox is a former Kentucky Derby winner (2021 with Mandaloun) and so is Catching Freedom's jockey, Flavien Prat, who rode Country House to victory in 2019. That experience could help get Catching Freedom to the winner's circle.
