Going into the 2004 race, Herdez had 2 of the 4 previous winners in the field - both won the race as rookies despite not making the championship top 10!

Yes, it appears they did. The reason Dominguez won the 02 race was that that race was the race with the big pileup at the start where adrian fernandez suffered a broken back/neck (can't quite remember) and the whole event, start to finish, was run behind safety car. Paul Tracy and Micheal Andretti were both in line to win that race but fuel mileage caught up with them and they both had to pit with 3 laps left behind the safety car leaving Dominguez the winner.
