Harvey Wallbanger, in his stakes debut, won in 1:43.69 on the track listed as Fast.

The Holy Bull was a first-round points scoring race for spots in the 1 ¼ mile Kentucky Derby (Grade 1) that will be on May 4 at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky.

Harvey Wallbanger earned ten points. The second through fourth place finishers earned four, two and one points respectively.

Payoffs for $2 bets were: $2,203.40 for the exacta; $12,234 for the trifecta; and $101,248.60 for the superfecta.
