Silver Spoon's daughter Inca Queen was a pretty good producer.
I don't recall when looking over old pps before that they would omit the horse that's pps are being show, from the order of finish list.

Prior to the 1960's -- that's how the DRF's did it.
Amazing to think you could have claimed Silver Spoon for 8K in that debut of hers with the 28 horse field. Here is a list of every single filly to race in the Kentucky Derby since 1945: 2010 Devil May Care 2008 Eight Belles 1999 Excellent Meeting 1999 Three Ring 1995 Serena's Song 1988 Winning Colors 1984 Life's Magic 1984 Althea 1982 Cupecoy's Joy 1980 Genuine Risk 1959 Silver Spoon Tell me that isn't an awesome collection of fillies! Unbelievably, from 1945 to 1979 -- the only filly to run in the Kentucky Derby was Silver Spoon. And now you have people who think we need to make special rules to keep fillies out of the Derby.

When Devil Diver broke his maiden over 18 rivals, he'd already been barely beaten in a similar sized field, 4 DAYS PRIOR. Imagine if that happened today. The idiots on the interwebs would be calling for John Gaver's head!
Nice prices on eventual TC winner Assault.
