Wayward Lass Entered In Derby Field Amid Scratch Flurry

The field shuffled as Sob Me and Mythical Ruler were bumped, three scratches moved in, and decisions loomed about Wayward Lass who also targets the Kentucky Oaks. Cash Asmussen rides both Wayward Lass and Noble Nashua as owners weigh the chances with posts and schedule.

McCord Leads Houston Open With Uncanny Putting Touch
Gary McCord fired a 7 under par 64 to grab the first round lead in the Michelob Houston Open. The 32-year-old described his method as a three dimensional putting approach aided by a force field and a “tri zonal” experiment. He holed from 35 to 40 feet on two birdies and one bunker shot for a birdie, calling the round a semi religious experience.
