An interesting sidelight? No Pletcher-Velasquez.. No Mott-Desormeaux.. No Biancone-Leparoux.. And mercifully, only one Asmussen..

13 different riders on board, (including Jimmy Graham, Larry Melancon and Jamie Theriot)... with only Corny Velasquez (MED Cup, Jamaica) and Robby Albarado (Breeders', IN Derby) gettings pairs..


The winning trainer-jock combos through Saturday:

ALCIBIADES (Gr. I): Frankel-Bejarano (Country Star)
MED CUP: Dutrow-C. Velasquez (Diamond Stripes)
IN OAKS: Brothers-M. Smith (Tessa Blue)
SYCAMORE: Glenney-Graham (Transduction Gold)
SHADWELL (Gr. I): Proctor-Theriot (Purim)
BREEDERS (Gr. I): Arnold-Albarado (Wicked Style)
CHAMPAGNE (Gr. I): Zito-C. Velasquez (War Pass)
FRIZETTE (Gr. I): Baffert-Gomez (Indian Blessing)
HIRSCH (Gr. I): Drysdale-Talamo (Artiste Royal)
IN DERBY: Asmussen-Albarado (Zanjero)
FIRST LADY: Clement-Nakatani (Vacare)
TCA: Perkins-Dominguez (Wild Gams)
JAMAICA: Tagg-Castellano (Nobiz Like Shobiz)
PHOENIX: Whiting-Melancon (Off Duty)
SAFELY KEPT: M. Mitchell-J. Rose (Sindy With an S)
still one too many...
