In the "unrestricted earnings eligibility system" Trinniberg was eligible from his earnings in sprint stakes. (I don't know what horse this year was denied eligibility that would have quickened the pace.) When you break down the previous derbys Spanish Chestnut and Going Wild in the 2005 derby may not have been eligible under the points system. This is the prime example of a pace meltdown that may have not taken place under the new system. |

![]() Was the most joyous and satisfying sporting event I've witnessed and that includes the '85 World Series 7th game in Kansas City, 1980 PGA Championship (Nicklaus) at Oak Hill, Habs 1993 Stanley Cup clincher at the Forum, the '88 NCAA basketball final at Kemper Arena, and more.
Being in attendance for all 3 races an added pleasure.. Creating recorded annals of it all for posterity with the principals on ATR a privilege and honor. ![]()
