. Feburary 4, 2019. It’s time once again for a new Derby Dozen, taking into account 3 big prep races last weekend: The Withers G3, Holy Bull G2, and Robert Lewis G3. The top 4 haven’t changed, because they haven’t raced this year, and consequently haven’t been beaten this year. They will have to start […]

[…]
