Top Contenders 

The horses that are likely to dominate at the Kentucky Derby are Bodemeister, Union Rags, Dullahan and Creative Cause.

Each horse has had great experience, placing first, second or third in the bulk of their recent races.

Success in the races leading up the Kentucky Derby is very important, and each of these colts have excelled in their preparation for the big race. 

Bodemeister is my pick to win it all, but any one of these horses has what it takes to get the job done.
