American Promise Kentucky Derby Prediction and Pick
American Promise's average speed score may leave something to be desired due to some less-than-fortunate outings early in the Road. Although, their aggressive ride at the Virginia Derby proves American Promise is capable of an upset. We've seen this horse hit impressive speeds during competitive races before.
