Aside from the Magnificent Seven of Andrew McCarthy, Tim Tetrick drove three winners during the qualies, while Andrew’s brother Todd had two. Noel Daley harnessed three winners; Nicklas Andersen had two wins, as did Jamie Sullivan and “P. Engblom,” with Per and Petter each having one in their stable win.
To finish out the United Nations theme, Dexter Dunn piloted a winner, and his 22-year-old nephew Jacob, a promising g young driver in New Zealand who just won his first Grade I race (with Daisy Bay in the Delightful Lady Classic at the Alexandra racetrack), got his first three charted North American lines.
