Trained by Bob Baffert, Lookin At Lucky covered 1 3/16 miles in 1:55.47 and paid $6.80, $4.60 and $3.80. First Dude, under jockey Ramon Dominguez, placed second and returned $16.60 and $9.20. Jackson Bend with jockey Mike Smith aboard came in third and paid $6.60 to show.

Jockey Martin Garcia beat veteran jockey Calvin Borel, who had predicted a Triple Crown sweep after his colt Super Saver won the Kentucky Derby in the muck, and won his first Triple Crown race.
Race horse trainer Bob Baffert made a gutsy call between the two races, opting to take veteran jockey Garrett Gomez off Lookin At Lucky, who was anything but in a series of mishaps in big races dating to last year.
“He came out here today and he was so cool and calm,” race horse trainer Bob Baffert said. “He rode a perfect race. Martin can get a horse to settle really well, and I could see he had the horse in a nice rhythm.”
