• Gulfport – Winner of both starts, high speed figs, winner by combined 19 lengths, high percentage jockey / trainer, working out well.

Race 2: Beverly D Stakes (G1)

• Lily Pond – Trusting Aidan O’Brien and his shipper here, also Johnny V gets the mount. Winner last race and may have found a good distance, generally dropping to shorter 1 1/8.
• Family Way – I like that she is dropping distance, second last race, working out well, finished on the board in 6 of last 7 starts, familiar jockey.
• Rougir – Coming off 4 90+ Beyers, should be fast enough, Chad Brown trained, experience in G1 company, working out well.
