Sunland Derby Best Bet

Sunland Park Race 9

12 - Conquest Mo Money

This 3-year-old son of Uncle Mo has been perfect so far in his young career, going 3-for-3 and winning by an average margin of 4+ lengths. Conquest Mo Money might get floated out wide for this event, breaking from the outside, but should have enough talent to overcome the poor post. This colt has some of the best pedigree in the field to get the long distance of 1 1/8 mile with Uncle Mo, Indian Charlie and Seeking the Gold in his bloodlines. This type of pedigree can go a long way in New Mexico and on the Road to the Kentucky Derby. His speed figures don't jump off the page, but love the grind-it-out style he has shown. Conquest Mo Money should be tough to handle in the Sunland Derby for the connections of regular rider Jorge Carreno and trainer Miguel Hernandez. Pedigree is big in these type of races and 'Mo Money has it along with the ability that makes him our best bet in Saturday's race.
