Key Factors That Could Lead to Owen Almighty Winning This Year's Kentucky Derby

Jockey (5)

Javier Castellano won the Kentucky Derby in 2023 aboard Mage. This victory marked his first Derby win after 15 previous attempts.

Past Performance (6)

Throw out the sixth-place finish in the Blue Grass and he’s never finished worse than second.

Why Owen Almighty Might Not Win This Year's Kentucky Derby

Past Performance (5)

Owen Almighty did win the Tampa Bay Derby.

Since its inception in 1981, the Tampa Bay Derby has produced two winners who went on to win the Kentucky Derby:​

  • Street Sense (2007): He won both the Tampa Bay Derby and the Kentucky Derby in 2007, becoming the first horse to achieve this double. ​
  •  Super Saver (2010): Although he finished third in the Tampa Bay Derby, Super Saver went on to win the Kentucky Derby later that year

His 6th place finish in his most recent race, the Blue Grass Stakes, has cast doubts on Owen Almighty. 

Trainer (5)

Brian Lynch has yet to win a Kentucky Derby.

Jockey (4)

Javier Castellano is not listed among the top 25 jockeys in the United States by earnings for the current year, according to America's Best Racing's 2025 leaderboard

Post Position (2)

Only one horse has won from the No. 19 post position.

From the Courier Journal: "Son of Speightstown likely wants no part of the 1 ¼-mile distance. Losing Ortiz Jr. as his jockey won’t help."
