Good afternoon Kyle, as always, I wait until the Monday before Derby to really start my handicapping. Although I don’t necessarily value your opinion since you haven’t cashed a derby winner since 2013, figured I’d run it by you.
Performance: He finished second in the 2026 Florida Derby to Commandment, highlighting his competitive form leading up to the Triple Crown season.
Racing Style: Known as a closer who rallies from behind.
@KdotTravis Luxor has won his last 4 starts,his last was the most impressive. In the Fukuryu Stakes on Mar 29, he stalked the pace, running wide the whole way, before unleashing the most awesome turn of foot and acceleration of any of the Derby hopefuls and dominating the field by 5 lengths
@KdotTravis I assume you’ve been ducking me all week as you’re not confident in the race today. IMO if you’re not going with Luxor Cafe, you likely won’t be winning any money.
6 career starts and 5 wins speaks for itself.
