Derby King Loses Shoe as Swaps Ride Debated at Hollywood
Hollywood Park jockeys eyed Dave Erb to ride Swaps in the $100,000 Californien after Willie Shoemaker received a five day suspension for rough riding aboard Silverado. Erb arrived from Chicago to ride the Kentucky Derby winner in a six-horse field. Erb previously rode for Rex Ellsworth and hinted Swaps offered a great opportunity. Shoemaker’s ban followed Silverado lugging in at the finish, overturning the result and leaving the mount in question amid plans for Swaps to race at Tollywood Park.
