2019 Triple Crown Nominations
horse racing triple crown
Late Nominations - 7 more horses

Date: 02/10/2019

A total of 312 three-year-olds were nominated by the early deadline for the 2022 Triple Crown. The number of early nominations slipped 4.3% or 14 horses from last year’s total of 326. Nominations during the early period, which closed on January 29, cost $600 each and make the horses eligible for all three Triple Crown races. Late nominations can be made through April 1 for a cost of $6000.

There are 286 colts, 19 geldings, 1 ridgling, and 6 fillies for a total of 312 nominees. The most nominated by an owner is 24 by Siena Farm LLC. Trainer Todd Pletcher nominated the most with 42, followed by Brad Cox with 26, Chad Brown with 23, and Steve Asmussen with 20. Gun Runner was the leading sire this year with 16 offspring nominated. The nominees include 250 horses that were bred in Kentucky, 14 bed in New York, and 13 bred in Florida. There were 23 international nominees, including 17 from Japan, 3 from Canada, and 3 from Ireland.

The Triple Crown kicks off with the $3 million Kentucky Derby (G1) at Churchill Downs on May 7, over a distance of 1 1/4 miles. The series continues two weeks later at Pimlico in Baltimore for the $1.5 million Preakness Stakes (G1) at 1 3/16 miles on May 21, followed by the $1.5 million Belmont Stakes (G1) at 1 1/2 miles on June 11 at Belmont Park in New York. The three-race parlay is considered one of the most difficult feats in sports, having only been attained 14 times, the last being Justify in 2018.

Seven additional horses were be nominated by March 28 during the late nomination period for the fee of $6000. After this. horses would have to be supplemented when entries are taken at a cost of $200,000 for the Kentucky Derby, which would also include the Preakness and Belmont, or $100,000 for the Preakness and Belmont, or $100,000 for the Belmont only. All horses nominated by April 1 get priority over supplemental entries if a race is oversubscribed.

Below are all the horses sorted by name. Free Equibase past performances for all the horses can be found here.
