Internet race book SBGglobal.com has odds on several Kentucky Derby entries including Denis of Cork putting the Florida horse at 15 to 1 odds. Denis of Cork is a closer that has had some strong workouts leading up to the 2008 Kentucky Derby. Jockey Calvin Borel ran last year’s Kentucky Derby Contender, so Denis of Cork will have a steady hand riding his fresh legs. Denis of Cork has a pedigree that is built for endurance but his track speed has been lower than most of the Kentucky Derby entries. Denis of cork is coming off sub-par performance in the Illinois Derby which is usually a bad sign heading into the run for the roses. Once projected as a blue-chip thoroughbred, Denis of Cork has been an underachiever and will have a difficult time keeping up with the more talented Derby Contenders.
Post 16- Denis of Cork Jockey: Calvin Borel (5-1-0-0) Record: 4-3-0-0 Highest Speed Rating: 96 Kentucky Derby Entries Odds: 15-1
