With the jockeys’ championship seemingly set to end in a stalemate, Dane Nelson and Anthony Thomas reporting ill and deadlocked on 84 winners apiece, Caymanas Park’s last bit of excitement for 2020 pits champion trainer Anthony Nunes against nemesis Wayne DaCosta in Sunday’s Jamaica Two Year Old Stakes.

With three meets to close the season, Nunes appears a safe bet to retain the crown he won last season, sn...
