2023 Kentucky Derby Runners: Forte Heads The Betting

FORTE will come into the Churchill Downs race this Saturday as the Kentucky Derby favorite and after some big wins this season already it’s easy to see why. The Todd Pletcher runner caught the eye of many last season and ended his campaign with a 1 1/2 length success in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at Keeneland last November.

The 3 year-old has returned this term better than ever, having won the Fountain Of Youth Stakes and then the Florida Derby (watch below) – both at Gulfstream Park.

Those two wins have seen Forte at the head of the Kentucky Derby betting market for most of the year and if successful will be trainer Todd Pletcher his third win in the first leg of the American Triple Crown. His other wins came with Always Dreaming in 2017 and Super Saver in 2010.
