Janet Del Castillo is not eligible because she is a first ballet inductee into the You Gotta Love Some Trainers Hall of Fame.

Goncalves is probably the next Ramon Dominguez and Joel Rosario. He's a great rider.

Check out Ms. Bates runner in the 7th on Thursday.

His debut race was in a turf sprint overnight stakes race at Colonial last year. He ran last every step of the way (I know I'm shocked). She layed him off after that debut for 6 months before bringing him back in a 25k maiden claimer earlier this month. So inspired by only being beaten 12 1/2 lengths at odds of 103.90 to 1, she figures he has to be set for open maidens. Wow...

Finished 6th of 7 at odds of 93-1, beaten double digit lengths. The only horse he beat was a FTS that was essentially left at the gate.
