all in Triple Crown

Tom Pedulla is interviewing prominent owners, trainers and jockeys as they travel the Road to the 150th Kentucky Derby presented by Woodford Reserve May 4 at Churchill Downs.

It was a coming out party for Godolphin's Encino, who streaked to the wire on top in his stakes debut while earning 20 qualifying points for the Kentucky Derby presented by Woodford Reserve in the 1 1/16-mile $142,500 John Battaglia Memorial Stakes at Turfway Park March

Dornoch began his 3-year-old season successfully by scoring a workmanlike victory against a depleted field in the $400,000 Grade 2 Coolmore Fountain of Youth Stakes March 2 at Gulfstream Park.

In his first race in nearly seven months, Deterministic overcame a difficult one-turn mile challenge on a sloppy track on a rain-swept afternoon at Aqueduct to win the $300,000 Grade 3 Gotham Stakes.

Track owner 1/ST will increase the purse of this year’s Preakness Stakes to $2 million and offer a $25 million racing and incentive series connecting a trio of Grade 1 races: this year’s Preakness and California Crown (formerly the Awesome Again Stakes), as well as the 2025 Pegasus World Cup Invitational Stakes.
