One person who did not show up at Garden State Park on Jersey Derby day was Angel Cordero, the jockey who had ridden Spend A Buck to victory in the Cherry Hill Mile, the Garden State Stakes and the Kentucky Derby. He had committed to ride Track Barron at Belmont Park on Memorial Day.

Great race for Spend A Buck. After all the prep races for the Kentucky Derby and the victorious Derby itself he ran well. And the Iselin Handicap that followed proved Horse of he Year status. I do wish he'd have been a better breeder.?
