Classy ladies going a classic distance as a group of seven sophomore fillies will use the AQU turf to cover a mile and an eighth in The Sands Point (GII).  A bit of everything here, but I’ve landed on the Big Barn and will take Sound Bath as the top selection.  I know, she doesn’t carry the graded resume’ as some others, but she woke up moving to the new shed row, and I think second race under his tutelage, she runs a big, big race.   I’ll take One Spirit in the second spot, that one off of a very sharp race in the field at KD, where she closed to DH for second in the DG Oaks.  Big purse there, so she was running with a nice group and showed a big late kick.  Expect more of the same here and she should be right there.  The Card went in a different direction… you may want to visit those selections.
