Champion Essential Quality Draws The Rail For 2021 Debut In Southwest Stakes Sponsored by: Essential Quality schools in the paddock at Oaklawn Park Oaklawn s four-race Kentucky Derby points series, specifically the Rebel and Arkansas Derby, is littered with starters who were Eclipse Award winners at 2. A third race has finally drawn a champion, too. Godolphin LLC s Essential Quality, the country s champion 2-year-old male, will make his 2021 debut in Saturday s $750,000 Southwest Stakes (G3) at 1 1/16 miles. The Southwest anchors an 11-race program that begins at 12:15 p.m. (Central). Probable post time for the Southwest, which goes as race 10, is 4:58 p.m. The Southwest will offer 17 points to the top four finishers (10-4-2-1, respectively) toward starting eligibility for the Kentucky Derby. ....
Sponsored by: Spielberg Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert has captured one of Oaklawn s four Kentucky Derby points races with a horse named after an Olympic gold medalist, another with a horse named after a professional tennis icon and a third with a horse named after a celebrated soccer manager.

The Southern California-based Baffert, who has dominated Oaklawn s Kentucky Derby prep series the last decade, will send out Spielberg in Saturday s $750,000 Southwest Stakes (G3), a 1 1/16-mile event the trainer s already won four times. Spielberg is named for Steven Spielberg, a two-time Academy Award winner for best director. Purchased for $1 million at the 2019 Keeneland September Yearling Sale, Spielberg – the horse – will be making his first start since a disappointing fourth-place finish in his 3-year-old debut, the $100,000 Robert B. Lewis Stakes (G3) at 1 1/16 miles Jan. 30 at Santa Anita ....

With his 2-for-2 record and his Sham Stakes victory and his debut Beyer Speed Figure of 101 and his six-time Derby-winning trainer, Bob Baffert, Life Is Good closed Sunday as the 7-1 individual favorite in Pool 3 of the monthly Churchill Downs pari-mutuel offering. It carries the name “Kentucky Derby Future Wager” as if it is the one and only and as if those other markets in outposts like the Nevada desert are rogue impostors.
Silly money drove the KDFW market just as it did with Las Vegas bookmakers, who are happy to take it. Life Is Good is best-priced in Nevada at 8-1. Whether it is a closing pari-mutuel or a fixed price, 7-1 or 8-1 is awfully risky weighed against the possibility of a horse missing the race, getting a poor draw, running a sloppy track or starting at post-time odds of 4-1. ....
