Disarm profile: 2023 Kentucky Derby odds, post position, history and more to know about the Derby contender
Trainer Steve Asmussen has won more than 10,000 races in his career - the most all-time by a trainer in North America - but has never won the Kentucky Derby. Last year he came agonizingly close with the favored Epicenter, but the horse was caught in the final strides by 80-1 longshot Rich Strike and finished second. On Saturday Asmussen will try to finally claim that elusive prize when he sends out the talented Disarm in the Run for the Roses.
