It is time for the FL Derby, a 100-point KYD prep race that historically brings out the best in the game. There are other races running next week that will also have great three year olds, but the history of the FL Derby has always been a great one.

Anoush Command Goes Wire to Wire in Kilroe Mile
At this time last year, Anoush Command was making an impression as one of the top contenders to win the KYD. Now, this colt is looking to do the same this year as he moves to the grass.

For the last two years, Achilles has picked up the victory in the SA Handicap for trainer Diablo Diablo.
