Here is a photo of "Ceiling Crusher", red nose band, #2, breaking out of the gate at the Parx Race Track on PA Derby Day," said Coath. "She is heading out to win the $1 Million Dollar Cotillion Stakes, a race for the fillies that has the same payoff for the actual PA Derby! Her Jockey is Edwin A. Maldonado, trainer, Doug O'Neill. The horse next to her came in 2nd, blue silks #3, "Pretty Mischievous", ridden by Tyler Gaffalione. Pennsylvania Derby Day is the biggest day of racing in Pennsylvania, and draws the top horses in the USA as well as the top jockeys and trainers.
