Nick Zito: 2 for 18 in the Derby (11%). Stienbrenner ain\'t gonna put up with that much longer.

Todd Pletcher has started multiple entrants in Derby at least 4 times, and twice has had 3 horses entered. Zero winners.

Bandini was his best shot yet. I just wish the four super horses had all been ready to fire their A race.

Just for fun last week I ran the numbers on the Frankel, Lukas, Pletcher and Zito runners from the archives to see who was best at getting horse to run their races in the Derby.  Sample sizes were ridiculously small (4 to 8 as I recall), but Frankel looked best (no \"off\" or \"X\" races), followed by Lukas, Zito, and Pletcher.
