KENTUCKY DERBY: Things to watch at Churchill Downs (The Associated Press)

Bob Baffert jokes that his last Kentucky Derby victory was so long ago, he doesn’t remember. The Hall of Fame trainer could make some new memories Saturday if either of his top two favorites – American Pharoah or Dortmund – end up wearing the garland of red roses in the winner’s circle. American Pharoah – winner of four straight races by a combined 22 1/4 lengths – is the early 5-2 favorite.
