Re: when are the tune up races for Kentucky Derby
One big tune up race was this past saturday at gulfstream called the fla derby.
The winner is going into the derby for sure, and the horse who finished 2nd is on the bubble.

The other two big preps are the SA Derby and Wood Memorial (like RS said) both run this saturday.
Also, Keeneland runs a race called the Blue Grass, which takes place on April 11th, that is the other big prep for the KYD.
