 SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (AP) - Jockey Edgar Prado, who won the 2006 Kentucky Derby aboard Barbaro and was in the saddle when the popular thoroughbred broke down during the Preakness, was among 12 finalists for the National Museum of Racing's Hall of Fame.
Jockeys Randy Romero and Alex Solis and trainers Carl Nafzger and Robert Wheeler were among the nominees announced Friday.
Prado, a two-time winner of the Belmont Stakes, captured his 6,000th race on Feb. 10 and earned more than $200 million during his 25-year career.
