COMMENTS: BELLA SOFIA has been dominant at Belmont Park with four wins and a second in five races. Getting the lead in a short field could make her hard to beat. GLASS CEILING has been on the sidelines since early April. She has been working well for her return and is a head from winning six in a row, OBLIGATORY looks tons better than EASY TO BLESS, but she will likely need to be a lot closer to the front than normal to have any chance to win.

COMMENTS: NOVO SOL has the top combinaton of early pace and late pace in the field. He ran by far his best race with jockey Irad Ortiz who rides again today for the second time. ABAAN has four wins and three seconds in nine races on turf. He will try to take them from gate to wire. LOFT makes his US debut after winning a Group 2 race at 2 miles in Germany. OUTBOX has the top pedigree scores for the distance and surface. He run ins some solid races versus some top company in England and does not see a lot of that here.

COMMENTS: We are going to try and get value at the top of the ticket. MR PHIL ran faster 6 furlong fractions at 7 furlongs in his last race than his did winning at 6 furlongs in the previous start. JACKIES WARRIOR is the class of the filed with as many triple digit speed figures and the rest of the field combined. BABY YODA ran much faster times in his last outing and could get an ideal trip. NIGHT TIME looks like hs could be sitting on a career best effort in this spot. Expect him to move forward in the second start following a long layoff.

COMMENTS: ROUGIR finally tackled firm turf in her last. This horse is expected to win big races because they paid nearly $3.4 million for her. She lived up to the price tag in her last and will try fo do so again here. There is not much to say about BLEEKER STREET beyond the fact that he is undefeated in six career starts. VIRGINIA JOY is a neck away from winning three in a row and four of her last five race. She is another pricey horse, selling for more than $1.14 million. FLIGHTY LADY is making her second start after a layoff, a 29% winning angle for trainer Chad Brown.

COMMENTS: CARAVEL has the best early and late pace combination in the field. She should sit right behind the leaders and try to run on to the wire in the stretch. ILLEGAL SMILE is another that should challenge for the lead and pairs it up with the top late pace numbers. NEVISIAN SUNRISE is steadily improving from race to race. This will be her biggest challenge but tends to run well following some rest, like today. JOUSTER is probably the most consistent horse in the field and has a high floor but is the only horse to post a triple-digit speed number in her last 10 outings. .
