As noted earlier Joly B is the master of three peats and has four. No one else has won three in a row. With that being said there is a barn burner side contest going on between JB and Don Guido. Since 2014 when we moved here to the Derby Trail Don Guido has won 48 points contests to Joly's 47. Ruffian is in third with 33 points wins.

With all those wins Don it is hard to believe that you haven't nailed a three peat. 8 times you had a shot at it but Arletta (2), Ruffian (2), Plenilune, RYonker (2) and Real Quiet derailed you. Thats 5 times a filly took you down. Diud you ever do anything to incur their wrath?

We all know who our offensive players are. The ones that score the big points. But often overlooked is the defensive end of our contest. Who is the player who can reject a Lebron slam dunk. Who makes the Willie Mays basket catch with his back to home plate. Who is our Gump Worsley and can turn away 63 shots in a game. Not a big player by most standards but who came up big on January 14th, 2017 @ Oaklawn. That defensive dynamo is Ruffian who on that day turned away all challengers and put up 51 points for the win. A few have tried but in these days of 100 point scores Ruff's defensive effort stands shoulders above the rest. With Oaklawn coming up this Saturday if points are hard to come by I would place a shekel or two on the Ruff Won to win it all.
