Points are counted by Turf Archive from the official charts, using Churchill Downs' published points for each race. Churchill Downs' official Kentucky Derby leaderboard decides who gets in; it breaks ties on earnings in non-restricted stakes, which the charts here do not carry, so tied horses here are ordered by wins in points races. Races outside North America have their own series and are not counted.
