Denis of Cork's 97 is the all-time lowest Beyer ever earned in a 3rd place finish in the Derby.
That was some group of 3yo's last year.

'93 was horrible though - I think Bullintheheather won the Florida Derby - Storm Tower won the Wood - Personal Hope won the Santa Anita Derby and Rockomundo won the Arkasnas Derby at 100/1

I think Afleet Alex held that distinction prior to that with a 98, which was a bogus figure anyways because there was no way they would ever give the Derby winner less than a 100 even though it should have been about a 96-97.

trivia... who ended up being the best sire from the 1993 Derby? (hint: it ain't sayin' much about the group)
