Owner John Greathouse and trainer Todd Pletcher confirmed Monday morning that star filly Devil May Care will be entered only in Saturday's Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands and not cross-entered in Friday's Kentucky Oaks.

Devil May Care will be ridden by regular rider John Velazquez. Velazquez was originally slated to ride Eskendereya, but the colt was withdrawn from consideration for the Derby Sunday morning after some fluid swelling was discovered in his right front leg.

Devil May Care, who races for the Greathouse family's Glencrest Farm, comes into the Derby off a 2 1/4-length score in the Bonnie Miss Stakes March 20 at Gulfstream Park. She worked five furlongs in 1:00 2/5 Saturday morning in the slop under the Twin Spires.

She will attempt to become the fourth filly to win the Run for the Roses, joining Regret (1915), Genuine Risk (1980), and Winning Colors (1988). Fillies have had a great deal of success in America's classic races of late with Rachel Alexandra winning last year's Preakness Stakes and Rags to Riches taking a dramatic 2007 Belmont Stakes over Curlin
