Journalism wins in the Grade 2 $300,000 San Felipe Stakes at Santa Anita, but will it be enough for the horse to make the field for the Kentucky Derby?

Journalism ran down odds-on favorite Barnes in the stretch to win the $300,000 San Felipe Stakes by 1 3/4 lengths at Santa Anita and move into contention for the Kentucky Derby in May.

Saturday boasts three major prep races, with the Grade 2 Fountain of Youth, G3 Gotham, and G2 San Felipe combining to offer 315 Kentucky Derby points. With that in mind, these rankings are almost certain to shift significantly next week.

The colt’s rally to upset Barnes in the San Felipe makes it a huge day for trainer Michael McCarthy, owner Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners.
