Zia Park (New Mexico):
Zia Park (New Mexico):
- Card: The $1.1 million Land of Enchantment card. Seven of the ten races had purses of $100,000 or more including a pair at $300,000.
- Joel Rosario (7 4-2-1) rode four consecutive winning races, all stakes, but not the feature.
- Steve Asmussen (8 3-2-2) and Todd Fincher (6 3-1-1) both trained three winners.
- Race 9: Flying Connection (Joel Rosario/Todd Fincher), the 1-to-9 prohibitive favorite, romped by five lengths to win the $300,000 Zia Park Oaks. The $250,000 daughter to Nyquist wins in New Mexico as evidenced by a career record of 7 6-0-1 and has won at three tracks (Sunland, Albuquerque and Zia). In other states, California and Kentucky, she is 5 0-1-0.
- Race 10: Two Rivers Over (Luis Fuentes/Doug O'Neill) won the $300,000 Zia Park Derby at 13-to-1, the second longest shot on the board. The winner entered off a race at Del Mar. Red Route One (Joel Rosario/Steve Asmussen) finished a disappointing third. He ran in the Preakness and Belmont Stakes this year.
