Judge Allows Flying Nashua to Run in Derby After Tiff
Jefferson Circuit Judge Charles Leibson ruled Flying Nashua may start in the Kentucky Derby despite the 20-horse limit. Wayward Lass was moved from Derby to the Kentucky Oaks after being scratched, and Flying Zee Stable also has Noble Nashua in the Derby, with two other horses bumped for earnings thresholds.

Derby Entries Filtered as 20-Horse Field Sparks Debate
Track officials contested a 20 horse limit not formally adopted by stewards. With Wayward Lass withdrawn, Flying Nashua, Saw Me and Mythical Ruler were excluded, highlighting the Derby’s strict earnings based field and controversy over post position impact. Favored Proud Appeal drew post five as part of the entry with Golden Derby. Pleasant Colony prospects rise after recent Wood Memorial win, while Tap Shoes and Bold Ego rate strong bids.

Alien Leads Houston Open
Gary McCord, describing himself as bizarre, shot a 7-under-par 64 to take the opening round lead at the Michelob Houston Open. He spoke of a “tri-zonal” putting illusion and three long 15-foot putts, finishing tied at 65 with Hale Irwin and two former champions, as muggy conditions kissed the Woodlands course.
