Prince Will I Am alerts the masses
BloodHorse Kentucky Derby Trail
Prince Will I Am, trained by Todd Pletcher’s former exercise rider Michelle Nihei, parlayed a bullet :59 3/5 work at Palm Meadows into a fast-closing second-place finish to Drosselmeyer at odds of 42-1. It’s hard to know what to make of his son of Victory Ride, but he is bred to run all day, and he can close.
