Money Supply, a $35,000 claim turned Grade 3 winner, is tabbed as the 2-1 morning line favorite in an oversubscribed field of 12 3-year-olds and up plus two also-eligibles entered in Saturday’s $200,000 Claiming Crown Jewel, the highlight of the 26th Claiming Crown at Churchill Downs.
The Claiming Crown, a celebration of top blue-collar horses from across North America, returns to Churchill Downs for the second time in three years, featuring eight races with a super-charged total of $1.1 million in prize money for some of the most competitive horses in the country. First post is 1 p.m. EST, with the Claiming Crown Jewel scheduled as race 10 at 5:25 p.m.
Money Supply has a career record of 21: 8-2-3 and earnings of $734,681. He was claimed for Jordan Wycoff for $35,000 on Aug. 20, 2023, from Klaravich Stables and trainer Chad Brown.
Since then, the 5-year-old has notched six wins, including victories in the Mineshaft (G3) at Fair Grounds and Jonathan B. Schuster Memorial Stakes at Horseshoe Indianapolis, as well as last year’s Claiming Crown Jewel.
Tyler Gaffalione will be aboard Money Supply for trainer Joe Sharp and will break from post No. 3.
