2012 King's Bishop Stakes Race Favorites

Trinniberg - finished a brutal 17th in the Kentucky Derby to follow up a pair of wins in 2012 - the Grade 3 Bay Shore and the Grade 3 Swale Stakes. Since the Derby Trinniberg has looked great - a win in the Grade 2 Woody Stephens Stakes over Currency Swap was followed by a good second last time out in the Grade 3 Carry Back Stakes at Calder on July 7.

Currency Swap - Won the You and I Stakes on May 12 and before that was a distant eleventh in the Grade 2 Illinois Derby. In his last two starts he has looked very impressive - a win last time out in the Grade 2 Amsterdam Stakes here on July 29 followed a decent second in the Grade 2 Woody Stephens Stakes on June 9. Currency Swap has four wins and two seconds in seven career starts.

Laurie's Rocket - has never placed in a graded stakes race but has won some minor stakes in a 13 race career including the Bachelor Stakes at Oaklawn in April. Laurie's Rocket finished a distant ninth in the Grade 2 Woody Stephens on June 9 and followed that with an OK fourth last time out in the Grade 2 Amsterdam here behind many of the King's Bishop opponents.

Gun Boat - Bob Baffert colt Gun Boat has seven career starts. Recently a decent third in the Lazaro Barrera Memorial was followed by a disappointing sixth in the Grade 3 Affirmed Handicap in June 3. He followed that result with an Allowance score but only managed a sixth last time out in the Grade 2 Amsterdam Stakes on this track.

Ever So Lucky - finished second to Gemologist in the Grade 2 Kentucky Jockey Club on November 26 and followed that with a third in the Grade 3 Swale Stakes at Gulfstream on March 10 to start his 2012 campaign. Since then Ever So Lucky has posted a disappointing tenth in the Blue Grass Stakes, he won an Allowance on July 5 and recorded a third last time out in the minor Curlin Stakes on this track on July 27.

Willy Beamin - enters the King's Bishop on an impressive five race win streak - no graded stakes scores however. He has six career wins in 10 starts and five of those wins have come in his last five races. Needless to say Willy Beamin is in the best form of his career.
