DERBY PREPS: Little-known 3-year-olds get a Derby chance (The Associated Press)

Both unbeaten colts are already qualified for the Kentucky Derby thanks to previous victories, but the Florida Derby on Saturday is likely a last chance for the other eight horses in the field to earn a shot at the Run for the Roses. A total of 170 Derby qualifying points are at stake – 100 to the winner, 50 for second, 20 for third and 10 for fourth. None of the 12 3-year-olds entered, including favorite Airoforce, have enough points to qualify for the Derby entering the race.
