ETC.* The Emerald Derby is the championship event for 3-year-olds at Emerald Downs*Zayda looks for his third straight 3-year-old EmD stakes win*The 2010 Derby winner Saratoga Boot paid $21.40*the track’s largest $2 win payoff in a Derby. Coincidentally, Saratoga Boot’s trainer Tim McCanna is also the only trainer to saddle a Derby winning favorite at Emerald Downs, when Alexandersrun won the 2005 edition. The track’s all-time leading trainer with 801 wins could notch back-to-back Derby scores with a Winter Warlock victory*Gallyn Mitchell (Couldabenthewhisky) is tied with Ricky Frazier for the most EmD stakes wins with 72*The past six Derby winners (Saratoga Boot, 2010; Winning Machine, 2009; Gallon, 2008; Mulcahy, 2007; Raise the Bluff, 2006; Alexandersrun, 2005) have been selected Top 3-Year-Old Male at EmD*Jim Penney (Kooky Saluki & Jebrica), who won yesterday’s Washington Oaks with Class Included, could become the first trainer to win the Oaks and Derby in the same year since Dave Forster accomplished the feat in 1997 with Oaks winner Capilano and Derby winner You’ve Got Action.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
