| COMMENTS: WAYS AND MEANS recorded a triple digit speed figure in seven of his last ten races. Any of those would likely be good enough here. SWEET AZTECA has won six of six races off the bench like today including his debut. EXPLORA has three wins and a couple of close seconds in five at the distance. R DISASTER could be the pacesetter and his confidence grows if he maintains the lead into the stretch. | ||||

| COMMENTS: BACIO is absolutely the horse to beat. He will be tough to beat with the lead early. YELLOW CARD should make a fairly aggressive move out of the turn and jockey Flavien Pratt is good at timing them. COMANCHE BRAVE has back to back group one wins with jockey Billy Loughnane riding like today. CY FAIR draws a tough post but unquestionably has the talent to overcome it. | ||||

| * TRIFECTA: 1,2,7/1,2,7/1,2,4,6,7,9 | ||||
| COMMENTS: FURTHER ADO ran the highest last race speed figure with elite late pace. T KRAFT has the best combination of early speed and late pace in this race. BRACKET BUSTER should be involved from gate to wire and has some of his best published workouts between races. FORGED STEEL has plenty of early speed and could benefit from cutting back in distance today. | ||||
| RACE #7 $2,000,000 Stakes 1 3/16 Miles ON THE Turf - POST TIME: 3:04 PM ET | ||||

| * EXACTA: 12/1,5,8,11 Key Box | ||||
| * TRIFECTA: 12/5,8,11/1,5,6,8,11 | ||||
| COMMENTS: BLUE BOLT is unquestionably the horse to beat and anything near morning line odds would be a gift. KATHYNMARISSA has won three of four starts with jockey Jose Ortiz in the irons and finished in the money twelve of thirteen on turf. JANCIS might have the most explosive late pace in the field and this race has the potential to have some hottish fractions. PRECISE might be the favorite here if not for BLUE BOLT. | ||||
| RACE #8 $2,000,000 Stakes 6 Furlongs ON THE Dirt - POST TIME: 3:42 PM ET | ||||

| * EXACTA: 11,13/3,10,11,13 | ||||
| * TRIFECTA: 11,13/11,13/3,7,8,10 | ||||
| COMMENTS: Sometimes it is the tiny details and T O ELVIS worked two seconds faster than he did prior to his US debut. Japanese trainers are not known for pushing their horses. ENGLISHMAN might be the biggest post time favorite over the BC races. LIAM SMITH is one of three horses with a par level race on his resume. The other two are above. ROLL ON BIG JOE should be part of the race call from start to finish. | ||||
| RACE #9 $2,000,000 Stakes 1 Mile ON THE Turf - POST TIME: 4:20 PM ET | ||||

| * EXACTA: 1,8/1,5,6,8,9,12 | ||||
| * TRIFECTA: 1,8/1,8,9/1,5,6,8,9,12 | ||||
| COMMENTS: DETERMINISTIC should push forward in a race without a ton of speed. If the half mile fractions are close to fortyeight seconds they probably are not catching her. NOTABLE SPEECH got the best of the top pick when they met with the highest last race speed figure. RHETORICAL has run well versus many of these but behind the top two. ZULU KINGDOM has as much upside potential as any but will need to improve plenty today. | ||||
| RACE #10 $2,000,000 Stakes 1 1/8 Miles ON THE Dirt - POST TIME: 4:58 PM ET | ||||

| * EXACTA: 2,4,5,8 Box | ||||
| * TRIFECTA: 2,4,5,8 Box | ||||
| COMMENTS: NITROGEN should have zero problems clearing the one horse as jockey Jose Ortiz tries to control the tempo from start to finish. FULLY SUBSCRIBED has made easy work of all other horses in her last four starts except for NITROGEN but has the best total pace profile. SCOTTISH LASSIE hit the board in all four at the distance but will need her best today. SPLENDORA usually comes off the bench hot winning five of the last six starts following some rest. | ||||

| * TRIFECTA: 2,12,13/2,10,12,13/2,3,610,12,13 | ||||
| COMMENTS: On paper this looks like a jockeys race and there is none better for that than Ryan Moore on BENVENUTO CELLINI in comfortable stalking position. DIAMOND NECKLACE has four group one wins but interesting Moore rides the other Aiden O Brien horse. BAY CITY ROLLER will have no problem with the distance with two wins and a trio of seconds in a handful of tries. TIFFANY ran the highest last race speed figure in her only US start and could be even better in round two. | ||||
| RACE #12 $7,000,000 Stakes 1 1/4 Miles ON THE Dirt - POST TIME: 6:16 PM ET | ||||

| * EXACTA: 7/2,3,5,6 Key Box | ||||
| * TRIFECTA: 2,5,7/2,5,7/2,3,5,6,7 | ||||
| COMMENTS: KNIGHTSBRIDGE has the most back class in the race and is very hard to beat when he gets off to a fast start as he should here. FOREVER YOUNG ran the highest last race speed figure and has a couple of maintenance workouts since. SOVEREIGNTY is unbeaten in three at the distance and none were particularly close. MAGNITUDE ran better early pace numbers despite stumbling at the start. |
