Horse capsules by SI's Mark Beech
| Hal's Hope (20-1) |
| Post postion: 5 |
| Jockey: Roger Velez |
| Dark bay or brown colt |
| Date Foaled: March 23, 1997 |
| Sire: Jolie's Halo |
| Dam: Mia's Hope |
| Breeder: Harold J. Rose (Fla.) |
| Owner: Harold J. Rose |
| Trainer: Harold J. Rose |
| Record: | Starts | 1st | 2nd | 3rd |
| | 9 | 4 | 1 | 0 |
|
| Graded Stakes Victories: Florida Derby (Grade I); Holy Bull Stakes
(Grade III) |
| Last start (Finish): Blue Grass Stakes (8th) |
| The Line: A brave runner, and along with his 88-year-old owner and
trainer, he would be the best story out of this Derby if he won. Alas,
his last-place finish in the Blue Grass is a bit much to bounce back
from, though he should perform better on Saturday. He's a
front-runner, and very few horses win the Derby wire-to-wire. |
