After knocking off reigning juvenile male champion Game Winner in the Santa Anita Derby (G1) April 6, Speedway Stable's Roadster has bested his stablemate once more, this time taking over the top position in this week's National Thoroughbred Racing Association Top 3-Year-Old Poll.
Seven different horses in the top 10 of the 3-year-old poll received at least one first-place vote.
The NTRA Top Thoroughbred Poll joins its sophomore counterpart in having a new name in its top spot. Bricks and Mortar, winner of the Pegasus World Cup Turf Invitational (G1T) and Muniz Memorial Handicap (G2T), earned five first-place votes and 313 points to take over the lead position from champion Monomoy Girl.
