Not too much of a shakeup at the top this week, because most of the top horses didn’t run and will stay in place. Mastery was looking to move up but came up injured after his masterful San Felipe win and probably won’t run for the roses, which sucks.
.
Thus Gunnevera will remain atop the rankings and point standings for this week, with nobody having a rightful challenge to his spot. Tapwrit can only move up to 5th with his Tampa Bay Derby win, because I said so.

For the IN column, I’m declaring any horse with at least 50 points, IN the Derby if they want to be and are healthy. Anyone less than 50, there are no guarantees at this point.
