Okay here is some raw numbers, doing it my way w/o counting W-x-W or x-W-W types....

SInce 1930, 77 horses have won the derby and 29 have followed with win in the preaknes. Percentage: 26.5%

Of 29 winners of the first two legs, 10 have won the TC. Percentage 29%.


Dont know what the fields were someone can find that info...

The 28 double winners are 1930, 32, 35, 36, 41, 43, 44, 46, 48, 58, 64, 66, 68, 69, 71, 73, 77, 78, 79, 81, 87, 89, 97, 98, 99, 02 , 03, 04

Umm some of the fields in the 30s were large, 18-20. The 40s the fields got way smaller so maybe something there. I think they were larger again in the 50s, they were up and down in the 60s, the '69 field was like 8, they started getting bigger in the early 80s, then smaller some for Alysheba/S.Silence, they got bigger in the early 90s...
