Hardy colt never misses a dance; usually shows up with a solid effort and most recently dominated G3 foes over 5F

Chestnut filly has been a bit of a disappointment on turf; no match for Averly Jane last time when running on for second

Ambitiously campaigned as a maiden early on; finally got her first victory at Ayr last time; prefers to race on the lead

Game little colt is a 6F specialist in GB; overcame slow start to lead the G2 Mill Reef before getting nailed at the wire

Ward filly was awesome at Belmont; couldn't hang on in Queen Mary but was gritty in France, albeit against lesser

Hasn't run a bad race in England; sliced between horses to just miss in the G1 Middle Park; is 2 for 4 at 5F

Undefeated filly may have run her best race first time on turf; Ward has won the last two editions of this with favorites

Well-traveled gelding sports 3-for-3 record; transferred stellar synth form to turf in the Speakeasy; now gets class test

Ran on late to be second to the undefeated One Timer in the Speakeasy; must run faster if he's to contend here

N.Y.-bred filly disappointed in stakes debut at Saratoga, but then impressed at Woodbine; needs pace ahead of her

Trainer:

Dueled early and still almost pulled off a 20-1 shocker in the G3 Futurity first time on grass; turnback to 5F may suit

Trainer:
George Boughey
Filly won first two starts over all-weather; has struggled since, most recently running last in the G1 Cheveley Park

Maiden was nailed on the wire by Elevado in average-looking maiden event; this would be a very ambitious spot
