Medina Spirit (John Velazquez)
Medina Spirit has an All-Star Triple Crown team behind him.
Baffert owns seven wins each at the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, and jockey John Velazquez has six victories at Triple Crown races.
Velazquez has won three of the last five Kentucky Derbies and became the first rider since Victor Espinoza in 2014 and 2015 to win back-to-back races at Churchill Downs on May 2.
Medina Spirit does have one trend going against him, as three of the last 10 favorites took first at the Preakness.
However, the counter to that trend is two of the three horses to win as favorites were American Pharoah in 2015 and Justify in 2018, both of whom were trained by Baffert.
