Post – 1 – RESET SPRING
Odds – 5/1
Owner – tarton3
Pedigree – RESET x INTELLO x SEBRING – Dam Bred (CHEESIOLOGIST)

Reset Spring will be making his first start at 7 furlongs. His previous 4 races have been productive starting with a maiden win. His second start was for AUS bred NW2L and placed a close 2nd. His third start was an unrestricted allowance for AUS bred and he scored a 2 ½ length win. He then stepped up to win the Jef City Desert Turf Juvenile by 1 length earning his top speed rating of 83. He could be a contender with a little improvement here.

Post – 2 – AMINFORMAL
Odds – 6/1
Owner – oldmoonfarms45
Pedigree – HALLUCINATE x I AM INVINCIBLE (AUS) x VICTOIRE PISA – Dam Bred (INFORMAL BARB)

Aminformal will be making his 2nd start at todays distance. He won last out at 7 furlongs against allowance NW2L foes earning his top speed rating of 83. He also broke his maiden in his third start. He could also be competitive here with a little improvement off his last start.

Post – 3 – ANTIPODIES
Odds – 6/1
Owner – jlincoln
Pedigree – NOT A SINGLE DOUBT (AUS) x SEPOY x DENMAN (AUS) – Dam Bred (DARLEY DELUXE)

Antipodies stepped into G1 competition in his last start and was unsuccessful getting into contention in the 6-furlong contest. He has 3 wins in 5 starts including a win in the Devils Sky Turf Juvenile at 6.5 furlongs. This stretch runner may appreciate the added distance here.

Post – 4 – GOLDEN CAT ATTACK
Odds – 10/1
Owner – worldclass7
Pedigree – GOLD SHIP (JPN) x VENICE BEACH (AUS) x STORM CAT – Dam Bred (SALTIRE SAND)

Golden Cat Attack has seen the lead in each of his 6 races, winning 4 of them. His last score was the Huskie Q B Casey P Turf Juvenile which saw him on the lead from gate to wire earning an 83-speed rating. He will be making his first attempt at a distance longer than 6 furlongs.

Post – 5 – KRIS S. KAMEHAMEHA
Odds – 3/1
Owner – dontbetonme15
Pedigree – KING KAMEHAMEHA x DANEHILL x KRIS S. – Scratch Bred

Kris S. Kamehameha started his career off with a bang winning his first three starts including the G3 Salisbury Medallion. His last 2 starts were in G2 and G1 company and he did improve his speed figures and earned a 3rd place finish in the G1 The More Nay. The added distance today may help him earn a nice paycheck today.

Post – 6 – HOLY TREASURE
Odds – 12/1
Owner – psalms
Pedigree – TREASURE BEACH x HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR (IRE) x DIESIS – Dam Bred (HINATA SAN)

Holy Treasure will be trying to redeem himself after a tough outing in the G1 The More Nay. It was his only off the board finish in 4 starts. He has two wins to his credit and a 2nd place finish in the G2 The Norfellow Stakes. He will need improvement off the G2 to be in the top 3 here.

Post – 7 – SCAMANDER RIVER
Odds – 10/1
Owner – darkhuntera
Pedigree – ULYSSES (IRE) x POINT OF ENTRY x UNBRIDLED’S SONG – Dam Bred (VOCAL POINT)

Scamander River will be making his 2nd try on turf today. His previous turf start was a 2nd place finish back in March. His off the pace running style resulted in a win in his last start on poly in a GB bred allowance NW1N contest. His last 2 races have been at the distance, significant improvement will be needed for a top placing here.

Post – 8 – MY AWESOME KING
Odds – 2/1
Owner – ddkstables
Pedigree – AWESOME AGAIN x KING KAMEHAMEHA x DUBAWI (IRE) – Dam Bred (QUEEN KAM)

My Awesome King has done everything right in his short career. He has gotten his picture taken in each of his starts including the G2 The Champagne Mile. He will be turning back in distance today but has a win at the distance. His dam, Queen Kam (EOY winner, 3 x G1 winning millionaire) has one other foal which is a 2 x G1 winning millionaire in King Kam Sepoy with graded wins on both dirt and turf. He is the morning line favorite and the one to beat.

Good Luck To All!
