No Le Hace Poised For Derby Upset Charge
Trainer Homer Pardue says No Le Hace is the class of the Derby field despite a large 3-year-old group and possible off track. The horse has won seven of his last nine starts including four straight as a three year old and beat 16 rivals in the Arkansas Derby. Derby Trial rivals include Key to the Mint and Head of the River as 14 Derby hopefuls compete. Riva Ridge and Hold Your Peace head early betting, while No Le Hace aims for a safe, tiring run and a potential upset victory.
