There will be new leaders atop both the trainer and jockey standings when Fonner Park closes its 31-day run Saturday.

Jordan Olesiak has led the rider standings from early in the meet and has 43 wins, giving him an 11-win margin over second-place rider Luis Ranilla heading into the final two days of racing. Apprentice Ashley Dill ranks third, with 30 wins.

Chris Fackler, a late arrival to the jockey colony, picked up his second four-bagger of the season last Saturday and stands sixth in the standings. Last year, Fackler and Jesus Ponce shared the riding title at Fonner.

GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas - Crider is a stalker who could find himself in the garden spot Saturday in the Lone Star Derby. He was one of six horses entered in the Grade 3, $200,000 race that drew an ample amount of pace, led by two-time allowance winner Henshin Hero.

"He's up front sprinting, so I assume he'll be up front routing," trainer Bret Calhoun said of Henshin Hero.

Rachel Alexandra, the 2009 Horse of the Year who incurred her second straight defeat when narrowly beaten by Unrivaled Belle in the La Troienne Stakes on the Oaks undercard, has resumed her normal training regimen at Churchill. Rachel Alexandra was schooled in the starting gate Wednesday just prior to the regularly scheduled harrow break before ensuing with a routine gallop under Dominic Terry.

Ailalea, fifth in the Kentucky Oaks last Friday, has remained at Churchill and likely will be pointed to the Grade 3, $100,000 Dogwood Stakes here May 29, said Michael McCarthy, assistant to trainer Todd Pletcher.

Blame, winner of the signature race of the 2009 fall meet at Churchill, the Grade 2 Clark Handicap, continues to make progress toward his first start of the year, which will come on the Preakness undercard at Pimlico, where he is expected to be a solid favorite in the Grade 3 Schaefer Handicap. Blame breezed six furlongs Tuesday in 1:14.40 over the Polytrack surface at Keeneland.

"He'll work again Monday before we leave out on the plane with all the Preakness horses" on Wednesday, said Al Stall Jr., who trains Blame for breeder-owners Claiborne Farm and Adele Dilschneider.

Stay Put, winner of a second-level allowance route that served as the Derby Day opener, is possible for the June 5 Belmont Stakes, said trainer Steve Margolis.

"We'll see how everything shakes out from the Preakness and go from there," said Margolis. "The other option is the Northern Dancer here a week later, but first we'll take a long look at the Belmont. The horse looked pretty good winning the other day."

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - General Quarters likely will be pointed to the Aug. 21 Arlington Million after making a sensational impression on grass, according to owner-trainer Tom McCarthy.

General Quarters outran Court Vision in a thrilling stretch drive to capture the Grade 1 Woodford Reserve Turf Classic, the race that directly preceded the Kentucky Derby last Saturday at Churchill Downs and showcased the 4-year-old colt's grit and versatility.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario - The $100,000 Wando, an open 1 1/16-mile race for 3-year-olds, was inaugurated in 2008.

Its purpose was to offer a stakes opportunity for the connections of winter-raced horses who may have been running around two turns and did not want to cut back in distance.

But, as an overnight stakes, the Wando is not guaranteed to go without a minimum of five entrants.

Entries for the Wando were taken on Wednesday, and once again just five horses will compete.

Roy Schaefer had been to Churchill Downs before, to see the 2007 Kentucky Derby won by Street Sense, so he wasn't exactly a wide-eyed bumpkin when he returned last weekend. But Schaefer and his wife, Ellie, made a critical mistake upon arriving at the track Saturday morning: They forgot to scout out the stairways, tunnels, and traffic patterns. And so, after their horse, Atta Boy Roy, captured the Grade 2, $290,000 Churchill Downs Stakes on the Derby undercard, the Schaefers found themselves in a world of trouble.

They had no idea how to get to the winner's circle.

Jockeys and trainers at Mountaineer Park in West Virginia remained at a stalemate on Wednesday in discussions over a mount-fee increase sought by the riders, according to representatives of both sides.
