LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — There is no clear favorite in the 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby that has at least a half-dozen legitimate contenders and maybe more horses that can win it. Todd Pletcher-trained Renegade opened as the 4-1 morning line favorite but horses like Brad Cox’s Commander or Further Ado or Bill Mott’s Chief Wallabee could be in the mix. It does not yet look like there’s a super horse in this 3-year-old class who could sweep the Triple Crown.
