The field for Kentucky Derby 2024 is set. Twenty horses plus two also-eligibles passed the entry box. In a late development on April 30, Encino was injured and had to scratch out of the Derby, and that allowed first alternate Epic Ride to move into the body of the race. Mugatu is the lone also-eligible and needs one defection to get in.Â
