NEW YORK (AP) — The Arkansas Derby and Blue Grass Stakes produced big upsets, although neither winner had much impact on The Associated Press latest Top 10 list of Kentucky Derby contenders.
The Blue Grass was won by 40-1 Stately Victor. In the other Derby prep Saturday, 17-1 shot Line of David took the Arkansas Derby.
While Line of David moves into the select group at No. 9, the top five remain the same, led by Eskendereya (es-ken-DRAY-uh). The 3-year-old colt is one of three on the list trained by Todd Pletcher: No. 5 Mission Impazible and No. 7 Super Saver are the others.
Lookin At Lucky is No. 2 and Ice Box is No. 3
John Sadler trains No. 4 contender Sidney’s Candy and also trains Line of David.
