Every longshot has his or her own story. Some overcome adversity or a run of bad luck, others defy logic, and sometimes a change in circumstance provides the key to unlocking an upset. Such was the case in the 2020 Lambholm South Tampa Bay Derby.
Sam F. Davis Stakes winner Sole Volante was a viable favorite coming off a 2 ½-length win at the same track and 1 1/16-mile distance, and the Tampa Bay Downs Derby prep drew a deep field of 12 3-year-olds, but there is no way King Guillermo should have been 49.20-1 odds.
