Departing is a War Front and Leave Gelding trained by Albert M. Stall Jr. He was three for three in his career until a third place finish derailed his road to Kentucky. Unfortunately, he'll need another prep race to garner enough points for a 1 in 20 chance at Kentucky glory.

Trainer Albert M. Stall Jr. doesn't have him set for another prep at this time, so we can only assume right now he's not pushing for a start on the first Saturday in May. We'll keep an eye on him, if not in Kentucky, he may still end up running in the Preakness or Belmont.
