With the Kentucky Derby just over a month away, the final chance to nominate horses to the 2008 Triple Crown closed on March 28. Early nominations, which only cost $600, closed in January while the late nominations were $6000 each. This year only 11 horses were nominated late, 10 colts and 1 filly. The best among them would of course be Florida Derby winner Quality Road, followed by Rebel Stakes winner Win Willy and Tampa Bay Derby winner Musket Man. The lone filly is Davona Dale Stakes winner Justwhistledixie.
If any additional horses not already nominated want to enter, they will have to be supplemented. Cost for this is $200,000 for the Kentucky Derby and $100,000 for the Preakness and Belmont. Even if a horse is supplemented, he is the lowest in priority for getting in the race with any early or late nominee getting preference over him. For the early and late nominees, graded stakes earnings determine their priority with the field limited to 20 starters for the Kentucky Derby with no also-eligibles allowed.
