The undefeated Purple Egg, winner of the Inaugural Stakes at Tampa Bay Downs, headlines the eight-horse field that has been entered in the $100,000 Gulfstream Park Derby, which will be contested on New Year's Day at Gulfstream Park.
The one-mile race is the first in a series of four major Kentucky Derby prep races -- the others being the Holy Bull Stakes, Fountain of Youth Stakes, and Florida Derby -- that will be held at Gulfstream Park this winter.
In addition to Purple Egg, other major contenders include Itsmyluckyday, winner of the Foolish Pleasure Stakes and Fasig Tipton Turf Dash Stakes at Calder; Sr. Quisqueyano, winner of the Seacliff Stakes and runner-up in three other stakes; and Star Contender, winner of the Cup and Saucer Stakes and runner-up in the Coronation Futurity.
