5/2/2020 For 4 year old and upwards going 7/8 on the main track for a purse of $500.000

1. Viper Command trained by Aer Stables: Viper Commands best win was last year in the G1 Malibu. Coming out of a G3 event at Keeneland where he was off the board, he will have to show much more to win this contest.

2. Yocomoblazed trained by Nolespan Racing: Coming out of a win in the Carter Handicap, This little horse looks to be getting better. The odds makers do not like him much as he is 20/1 morning line.

3. Peculiar Sensation trained by Mb Stables: This horse is a good horse who is always right there. He ran a 9th in his last start in a G3 event at Keeneland but was only beaten a length. Before that had two seconds place finishes against graded stakes competition.

4.Malibu Moon trained by D J C Racing: I hate to say it but I think this horses best days are behind him. After two starts this year and has not hit the board yet getting beaten 4 lengths in both I do not think this horse matured into what they thought he was going to be.
