Cairo Prince is a Pioneerof The Nile colt who won the G2 Holy Bull back in January of this year. His 4th place finish in the Florida Derby has him on the bubble with points so he'll need a little luck to stay on the short list for contenders on the first Saturday in May.

If he does Run for the Roses, he's a serious contender. He's got a burst of speed in him, something we didn't see in the Florida Derby. A decent post position and a good ride is all this colt needs.
