Eleven go postward in the 2012 Arkansas Derby, a $1 million prep for the Kentucky Derby. Bodemeister was the runner-up in the Grade 2 San Felipe in his stakes debut March 10, but he drew post 11 for the Arkansas Derby. Bodemeister will be one of the favorites for this race. Secret Circle earned a Beyer Speed Figure of 92 for winning the Grade 2, $500,000 Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn. Isnt He Clever also looks intriguing, coming off a win in the Borderland Derby and most recently a close second in the Grade 3 Sunland Derby. Optimizer and Jake Mo both finished behind Secret Circle in the Rebel Stakes though Optimizer managed to get within ¾ of a length of the winner, but Jake Mo has a bit more ground to make up here. Stat comes off a big 6-length allowance win but will get the real test here. Cozzetti will break from the rail one start after finishing third in the Grade 2 Tampa Bay Derby on March 10. Raconteur breaks from post 10 and will be a relative longshot. Atigun and Sabercat round out the field.
