As his last prep before the first Saturday in May, MEDINA SPIRIT drew post 7 for Saturday’s Santa Anita Derby (G1) at Santa Anita Park. The 5/2 morning line favorite, the graded stakes-winning son of Protonico stacks up against nine other rivals, looking to add to his tally of Kentucky Derby (G1) leaderboard points.
Jockey John Velazquez will ride back for trainer Bob Baffert. MEDINA SPIRIT was last seen with a strong runner-up finish in the San Felipe (G2) after an impressive game victory in the Robert B. Lewis (G3) earlier this year.
There are no upcoming entries at this time.
