Kentucky Derby Contenders: El Gato Malo Profile

El Gato Malo was coming off a 1 1/2-month layoff when he won the San Rafael Stakes at Santa Anita on Jan. 12. The colt then came in second to Colonol John at the $200,000 Sham Stakes at Santa Anita. Even though it wasn't a win, it definitely wasn't all that bad for the Derby contender.

“We thought we were the best horse in the race,” trainer Bob Carper said. “We think if he hadn’t gotten trapped along the rail, he would have won the race.”
