Orb is a Malibu Moon and Lady Liberty colt. He won the Fountain of Youth (G2) and the Florida Derby (G1) over some very good Derby competition. Joel Rosario returns to ride Orb in the Derby - he was aboard him for his first five starts, but was unable to take the mount in the Besilu Stables Fountain of Youth and Florida Derby due to prior calls. He trained at Payson Park before heading to Churchill Downs and impressed trainer Shug McGaughey.
