Ocelli trainer Whit Beckman was a guest on Glenn Clark Radio Tuesday.
Among the topics he discussed were:
-How a horse that was sold for $12,000 and hadn’t won a race went from 70-1 to third place in the Kentucky Derby
-The viral reaction of some of the horse’s owners after Ocelli’s big performance in the Derby
-Why he was willing to turn around and run again in two weeks when the Derby winner (Golden Tempo) and the majority of the field was not
-Considering they were so close to winning the Derby, should the shorter distance at Laurel Park pay off?
-What it would mean to him to be a Preakness winning trainer after being part of the team for past Derby and Preakness winners
