After a dominating run at the Lands End Stakes at Turfway and a very strong second place finish at the Blue Grass, three year old colt "Hold Me Back" became a legitimate contender. In just two years of racing he’s compiled a career winnings total of nearly a half a million dollars which could increase tremendously with a proper showing at the 2009 Kentucky Derby. Hold Me Back is on the SBGglobal.com Kentucky Derby betting board at 15/1 (+1500) odds.

The biggest knock on this horse had been his stamina at a mile and a quarter and his ability to run on dirt. But both of these doubts have been silenced with his work this year in his only two races in the run up the 2009 Kentucky Derby odds. With only two races under his belt this year some bettors might like to have a larger body of work to sample from. However, with veteran jockey Kent Desmoreaux on his back any lack of experience should be mitigated and this looks like the top outside horse to win the 2009 Run for the Roses.
Owners Bill Kasner and Kenny Trout are hopeful that they’ve got a contender on their hands and with the help of hall of fame trainer Bill Mott they just might. Hold Me Back is not your typical 2009 Kentucky Derby odds contender. With a strong European lineage and racing background he has not taken a common route the 2009 Kentucky Derby odds competition.
