Favorite Jaycito out of Santa Anita Derby
April 8, 2011ARCADIA, Calif. (AP) - The Santa Anita Derby has lost another contender.
Favorite Jaycito has dropped out on the eve of Saturday's $1 million race because of a bruised front foot.
That leaves Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert with a single entry, 20-1 shot Midnight Interlude, for the West's biggest prep for the Kentucky Derby.
On Thursday, the race lost Premier Pegasus, the initial early favorite, because of a leg injury that will sideline the colt through the Triple Crown series.
