4. Bet Twice by Sportin Life-Golden Dust by Dusty Canyon won Belmont S. 4x4 Nasrullah 5x5x5x5 Nearco
5. Snow Chief by Reflected Glory-Miss Snowflake by Snow Sporting won Preakness S. 5x5 Embrujo
6. Prairie Bayou by Little Missouri-Whiffling by Wavering Monarch won Preakness S. 3x4 Bold Ruler 5x5 Tom Fool
7. John Henry by Ole Bob Bowers-Once Double by Double Jay 4x4 Bull Dog 4x5 Blue Larkspur Horse of the Year twice and just turned 30
