CONQUEST BOOGALOO
Trainer: Mark Casse
Last race: May 16, 8th
Finish: 8th by 6 1/4
Beyer: 71
He lacked room along the inside from about the five-sixteenths pole until midstretch in the Grade 3 Marine Stakes, an important Queen’s Plate prep. He should be more prominent if things go his way in the Plate Trial Stakes.

PIPERS JOURNEY
Trainer: Paul Attard
Last race: May 16, 7th
Finish: 1st by 5 3/4
Beyer: 67
She powered home from just off the pace first time out in the faster split of a seven-furlong maiden special for Ontario-sired fillies and mares. The large daughter of Niigon appears to have stakes potential.

EASY INDYGO
Trainer: Nick Gonzalez
Last race: May 15, 7th
Finish: 2nd by 1
Beyer: 62
He dueled through rapid fractions before giving way grudgingly when he went long for the first time in an Ontario-sired allowance. The Marchfield 3-year-old gelding had a productive juvenile campaign, and has picked up right where he left off.
