🏇🌹 Tune into the latest episode of the "2024 Kentucky Derby Monster Podcast"! Join PTF and Eric DeCoster from In The Money Media as they delve into the prospects of Epic Ride, a potential dark horse in this year’s Kentucky Derby. Will Epic Ride make a surprising entry into the field and make his mark at Churchill Downs? 🌟
Bred by the notable Fred Hertrich III, who also bred Florida Derby runner-up Catalytic, Epic Ride comes from a pedigree rich with racing success. Purchased by Welch Racing LLC for $160,000 at the Keeneland September yearling sale, this colt is trained by John Ennis and has shown promising signs leading up to the Derby.
Sired by Blame, the renowned victor over Zenyatta in the Breeders’ Cup Classic and sire to champions like the Arkansas Derby winner Nadal, Epic Ride inherits a legacy of stamina and grit. His dam, Pick a Time by Gio Ponti, adds to a lineage flush with stakes winners such as Cuando and Honey Ryder, enhancing his stamina credentials for the 1 1/4 miles at the Derby.
In this episode, PTF and Eric discuss Epic Ride's training regime, his pedigree's implications for the Kentucky Derby, and whether he possesses the necessary speed to compete with the top contenders.
