Santa Anita Derby Picks to Monitor
Imagination
Morning Line Odds: 8/5
Imagination is the morning line favorite. He got his first stakes victory in his last start at the San Felipe Stakes (Grade 2) with a 104 Speed Figure. Trainer Bob Baffert has won this race nine times.
Wynstock
Morning Line Odds: 8/1
Wynstock concluded 2023 with a wire-to-wire win at the Los Alamitos Futurity (Grade 2). He didn't perform well the last time out at Oaklawn Park, but poor track conditions could be to blame. He's another Bob Baffert entry.
Tapalo
Morning Line Odds: 5/1
Tapalo finished second at the El Camino Real Derby in February. He's posted Speed Figures of 95 and 99 this year.
Stronghold
Morning Line Odds: 5/2
Stronghold has finished second place or better in five lifetimes starts. He won the Sunland Park Derby (Grade 3) in his last race.
