This year, Kentucky Derby contender Dornoch is owned in part by former Major League Baseball World Series champion Jayson Werth.

Each week, members of the national media vote on the nation's top contenders on the Triple Crown trail in the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) Top Thoroughbred Poll.
