According to the link a horse must run in all 3 races of the Big Apple Triple to qualify for bonus $$$.
Only one horse ran in all 3 races. Quiet Favorite finishing 4th in the Mike Lee, last in the NY Derby, and 5th in the Albany.

Here's the question.
Should Quiet Favorite, although he won 0 bonus points, be awarded the $25,000 because he was the only horse to run in all 3 races of the Big Apple Triple?
