Trainer Tim Yakteen wins his second straight Santa Anita Derby when Practical Move edges Mandarin Hero. Owners continue living Kentucky Derby dream.
Skinner, trained by John Shirreffs, is currently 21st on the list with 45 points and just needs one horse to drop out to make the field.
In Keeneland on Saturday, Tapit Trice rallied late to beat Verifying to win the $1-million Blue Grass Stakes for trainer Todd Pletcher, who also trains qualifiers Forte and Kingsbarns, who won the Louisiana Derby. Faiza and jockey Flavien Prat pull away from the field to win the $400,000 Santa Anita Oaks on Saturday.
“I talked with [owner] Michael [Lund Petersen] and he doesn’t want his horse with anyone else,” Baffert said. “He said that’s why he hired me. I told him we could nominate [Faiza] but he said he didn’t want to do it.”
