Here's a trivia question ... in the last 6 years, a total of six different Derby starters ran a triple digit Beyer in career start #2 at a distance beyond 6 furlongs.
As mentioned early, Big Brown, Barbaro, Smarty Jones, and Funny Cide all did that and went on to win the Derby.
Lion Heart did that and was 2nd to Smarty Jones in the Derby.
Name the 6th horse.
