Horse capsules by SI's Mark Beech

Anees (20-1)
Post position: 1
Jockey: Corey Nakatani
Bay colt
Date Foaled: February 5, 1997
Sire: Unbridled
Dam: Ivory Idol
Breeder: Farfellow Farms (Ky.)
Owner: The Thoroughbred Corporation
Trainer: Alex Hassinger Jr.
Record: Starts 1st 2nd 3rd
  6 2 0 2
Graded Stakes Victories: Breeders' Cup Juvenile (Grade I)
Last start (Finish): Santa Anita Derby (4th)
The Line: Anees bruised a foot last December after his Breeders' Cup win and took the next four months off. Talented colt has run well in two starts this year, finishing in the money in both the San Felipe and the Santa Anita Derby, but he will have to make a major move forward to win at Churchill Downs. He probably needs another race before he's all the way back -- and might have a better shot in the Preakness on May 20.
