BY MY STANDARDS (c, 4, Goldencents–A Jealous Woman {MSW & GSP, $469,956}, by Muqtarib), a maiden winner over this track and trip last February, earned a ticket to the GI Kentucky Derby with a next-out victory in the Mar. 23 GII Louisiana Derby, but had been missing since a troubled 12th-place effort in the big dance last May. Sent off the 1-2 favorite, the bay colt shadowed pacesetting Two Emmys (English Channel) through fractions of :24.64, :49.29, and 1:13.50. He took charge in upper stretch and strode home an easy six-length winner. By My Standards was a $150,000 OBSAPR juvenile. Multiple stakes winner A Jealous Woman produced a colt by Runhappy last year. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton. Lifetime Record: GSW, 7-3-2-1, $681,910.
