Exaggerator, Sunny Ridge among 13 pre-entered for Delta Downs Jackpot

Saratoga Special winner Exaggerator and Champagne runner-up Sunny Ridge were among 13 horses pre-entered Tuesday in the Grade 3, $1 million Delta Downs Jackpot. The 1 1/16-mile race for 2-year-olds is Nov. 21. Final entries will be taken Nov. 16.
The Jackpot will be limited to 10 starters on the six-furlong track at Delta. Forevamo, who won his maiden in the local prep, the $200,000 Jean Lafitte, has first preference into the Jackpot.
The next preference is horses who have placed in Grade 1 or Grade 2 races followed by placings in all graded races. The final preference is earnings. The first four finishers will also earn Kentucky Derby preference points on a scale of 10-4-2-1.
Found Money, a stakes winner for past Jackpot-winning trainer Doug O'Neill, was another pre-entered in the Jackpot. The remaining pre-entrants were Siding Spring, Rare Candy, Harlan Punch, Memories of Winter, Texas Jambalaya, Whitmore, Roman's Chance, Iron Dome, and Cowboy Classic.
The Grade 3, $400,000 Delta Downs Princess on the same card drew 10 pre-entrants led by La Appassionata.
