Riley Tucker will be NO WHERE NEAR that price at post time, and with his earnings, I think he has a shot at the Derby also, I think he got 2nd in the Arl Wash Futurity, plus his 2nd in the translyvania recently. I can't get an exacta amount, but I think the Wash Futurity is 150k purse, and that one was 150k purse, so a win by him puts him in the picture also....

He has $128,600 total earnings.

He won a MSW50k = $30,000
2nd in a 40250N1X = $8,050
Every other race was Graded for him.

Which leaves = $90,550 as Graded Earnings.

This race is worth $325k which gives $195,000 to the winner.

That would put him at $285,550 which puts him at 20th on the current list, but there are horses above 20 that are not going, so I'd say a win and he's in.
