Well they got Gato de Sol right according to Somer. So thats one out of...
The times look about right. The winners are correct. But I just dont remember Post postions well. I liked Brother Derek just last year and I cant remember whether he came out of the 20 thru the 17, but I think it was somewhere out there.

And yes lots of crap gets put up on the internet, I just dont remember these things well.

Gato Del Sol won out of the 11 hole, not the 18.

Brother Derek was in the 18.

Keep in mind that some Derby fields were small, Citation faced only 5 horses in 48 I believe, of the outside posts, 17 & 19 have had no winners I think, 18 has one...Gato Del Sol in 82, and 20 has one...Clyde Van Dusen in 29


This is Somers post. He usually is very accurate. But honestly since I dont remember... And he said I think, which is a hint of Im not sure... So if you have found multiple errors I will go with your info.

The picture of Gato Del Sol with the roses around his neck wearing the 11 saddlecloth is proof enough for me. LOL

1988: 8-1a-3 (Winning Colors)
1989: 10-2b(one of the best horses I ever saw )-2 (Sunday Silence)
1990: 7-11-8 (Unbridled)
1991: 4-10-7 (Strike the Gold)
1992: 7-3-1a (Lil E. Tee)
1993: 6-5-16 (Sea Hero)
1994: 6-5-10 (Go for Gin)
1995: 11-10-2b (Thunder Gulch)
1996: 4-3-8 (Grindstone)
1997: 6-5-12 (Silver Charm)
1998: 2-12-7 (Real Quiet)
1999: 11-13-8 (Charismatic)
2000: 12-5-1c (Fu Peg)
