Incredibolt already owns one of the strongest résumés in the field. He captured the Virginia Derby impressively and later finished a respectable sixth in the Kentucky Derby after encountering some traffic. Earlier in his career he won the Street Sense Stakes at Churchill Downs with a strong late rally, demonstrating versatility and improving form.

Like Corona de Oro, Incredibolt is by Bolt d’Oro, though his female side may offer even more stamina thanks to dam Sapphire Spitfire, a daughter of Awesome Again. That pedigree combines stamina, class, and durability, and the way he was thriving after the Kentucky Derby led trainer Riley Mott to head to Maryland.

Incredibolt’s running style makes him especially appealing in this field. He can settle off the pace and finish strongly, yet he does not require an impossible setup. If he takes another step forward off the Derby, he looks like one of the major contenders.
