Nowhere to Hide for Nick Zito

by Kim Thomas

Media darling and Hall of Fame trainer Nick Zito is now officially a part of this year’s Run for the Roses. With Win Willy withdrawing from the race, Nowhere to Hide is now on the dance card for the 135th running of the Kentucky Derby.

This son of Vindication and out of the Seeking the Gold mare Stirring is bred for distance but has now become known for his fourth place finishes (he has earned just a little over $40,000 for owner Len Riggio.

Jockey Shaun Bridgmohaun will be aboard and there will be Nowhere to Hide this Saturday when he will be asked to run against a full field at the one mile and a quarter length of dirt track he must cover at the Derby .
