- Face Your Fear, B. Hernandez Jr, Luz International- could be a sneaky one after an impressive allowance win.
- Mucho Cruncher, J. Talamo, AER- stake winner last out looks to pick up some KYD points.
- Strategic Command, D. Centeno, John Henry- will need to improve off an allowance defeat.
- T S Theatrical, E. Maldonado, Triple K- outclassed here, will have to step up big.
- The Hand You’re Dealt, D. Butler, Mb Stables- interesting choice f jockey, but ran an impressive race in a stuttered allowance last out.
- Viking Sword, G. Stevens, Delta Farms- maiden victor at 1 1/8 miles so distance is not a question, class is.
- Danzig On The Rocks, E. J. Wilson, Yankee Doodle Stable- ran a quick mile in allowance company two starts back, could be anything.
- Profound Connection, R. Albarado, Mb Stables- this GI winner looks to avenge his defeat to Ginger Haggis in the BC Juvenile, and looks ready to do so.
- Ginger Haggis, M. Smith, The Sidley Stud- Leparoux loses the mount on the three time GI winner and Champion 2yo who makes his seasonal debut here.
- Drunk In Love, I. Ortiz, Mb Stables- this one won his only start being at a free track, Mb takes a shot here.
- Victory Laffin, K. Desormeaux, Nakamura Stables- ran two strong races in allowance company and steps up in class.
- Industry Connection, G. Boulanger, Smokey Stover- this one was only 2 lengths behind Profound Connection in the LA Futurity GI which makes him a contender in here.
