Without an overwhelming favorite in the field — the morning-line favorite Omaha Beach was scratched on Wednesday with an entrapped epiglottis — a number of horses have a solid chance to win today’s 145th running of the Kentucky Derby. Will it be one of three from the barn of the two-time Triple Crown winning trainer Bob Baffert (Game Winner, Roadster and Improbable)? Or will it be Tacitus, who would give the Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott an elusive win in America’s biggest race. Maybe it’s the speedy Maximum Security, who has become a somewhat surprising favorite?
