Here's something I should have noticed but haven't in the past. Oscar S. Barrera III is training in NY (the 8 horse in today's 7th at Aqueduct and the 8 in the 8th). I see this is only his second year of training (he "was" 0 for 12, but just won as Prado scraped the rail and went last to first in an 11 horse field, excellent ride!)
The owner of the first horse is "Sosa-Barrera Clery", and has the same silks as Oscar used back in the '70s through early 90s with a black yoke added. The second is owned by OSB III himself, with the same silks as his grandfather.

Taking a quick look at what he's done,he likes to bring his horses back quickly.A couple of times there was a 4 day layoff,a couple of 6 day layoffs and a handful of 15 days or less

Just like his grandfather...
I think I mentioned this "elsewhere" - Oscar Sr. once claimed a horse, Teriyaki Stake, at the lowest claiming level in February, 1986. He then ran her back a few weeks later on March 2 at a higher claiming level. She won, then also won at increasingly higher levels on the 10th, 13th, 21st and then won an Allowance race on March 25. He and she finished out the month by winning a high-level claiming race on March 31. Six races, six wins in 29 days. She then disappeared until June.
