Baeza Trainer and Jockey

2005 Kentucky Derby-winning trainer John A. Shirreffs is responsible for three Triple Crown top-threes prior to Baeza.

Baeza has one of the top jockeys in the field in Flavien Prat. Prat won the Eclipse Award Outstanding Jockey in 2024, during which he ranked 1st among all jockeys in earnings. He placed 3rd at Belmont last year while riding Sierra Leone.

Baeza Race History

Most recently, Baeza placed 3rd at the Kentucky Derby this year and skipped the Preakness Stakes.

They've posted compelling speed scores over their last three races, which also includes a 2nd-place finish at the Santa Anita Derby in early April.

Baeza Belmont Prediction and Pick

With arguably the top jockey in racing and encouraging recent speed scores, Baeza is certainly a top contender at the 2025 Preakness. At 4-1 odds, there's a lot to like about including this horse in an exacta or trifecta bet.
