We know right now that the Kentucky Derby could be a somewhat unknown race, especially considering these days we usually see less from the horse in a calendar year. That is why being fully a "favorite" in the Derby does not hold as much water as it once did. There are therefore many facets involved, which range from a pedigree to his work to his pedigree. Steam has been picked up by some unheralded horses in recent times. If you're trying to find dark-horse candidates in the 2013 Kentucky Derby, you should probably look at these horses. Normandy Attack Normandy Invasion could be the horse that is generating the most buzz one of the dark horses in 2013. He roared back at the Wood Memorial Stakes on April 6 and he is looked great in education. J.J. Hysell of the Louisville Courier-Journal andAIn The MoneyAblog wrote, via Forbes.com: Normandy Invasion, in post situation five at 12-1,Ahas appeared exceptional in day gallops and was so keen on Thursday he went off together with his exercise rider. Heas enhanced with jockey Javier Castellano, who said Wednesday he likes the post position. Bill Finley of ESPN.com, who selected Normandy Invasion to win the Kentucky Derby back November, echoed Hysell's comments, writing, "Normandy Invasion still appears like a horse that is just going to get better." Castellano should like Normandy Invasion's post position. Winners have been produced 12 by the position at the Derby since 1900 (tied for probably the most among all post jobs). Itsmyluckyday To begin with, Itsmyluckyday is in a traditionally good situation. There has been 10 winners at the No. 8 article place at the Derby since 1900. Secondly, the fact the horse has brought on a simple work load in 2013 is really encouraging. Itsmyluckyday has two wins in three events this year, and in another race he finished 2nd. The extra rest numbers to greatly help him in the difficult 1 1/4 miles. Ed DeRosa, manager of advertising forABrisnet.com, said, via the Forbes.com report: Itsmyluckydayas prep battle in the Holy Bull in January is sufficient to win the Kentucky Derby, and his post position is perfect to produce a move on the far turn. Heall seize control from Goldencents at the eighth post, and his best race allows him to carry off Revolutionary and Orb late. Palace Malice Construction Malice has published five top-three finishes in six job begins, including a Maiden victory in August 2012. But, despite putting 2nd at the Blue Grass Stakes, ownerACot Campbell was uncomfortable with how a colt had been racing. He's decided to place blinders on Palace Malice for the first time in the horse's career and some think it will pay major dividends. Campbell explained, via the Augusta Chronicle: We thought he was exploring some in his races at the Fair Grounds and then, in the Blue Grass Stakes, he discovered the beginning gateas tire tracks and changed prospects as he entered them. Hysell noted, "Palace Malice has turned a corner with the addition of blinkers." Seth Merrow, founder ofAEquidaily.comAand handicapper for Capitol OTB, also believed Palace Malice had potential, per the Forbes.com survey.
