Isn't Gemologist and El Padrino on the borderline when it comes to earnings?
El Padrino is 11th with $200,000, so he'd basically just need to finish 2nd in the Fla Derby, but 3rd would be more than enough.

Gemologist is 25th with just over 103k. He needs to run at least 2nd in the Wood to get a spot.

Thanks. The Risen Star has a bigger purse than I thought.
