None of these turf milers are ready for the trash can.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A sextet of spectacularly bred fillies and mares lines up in the smog of Mexico City<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> this Saturday to contest the Grade 2 Trash Can Mile.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>While the outside horse is the only female here who clearly likes to run in front, the rest are happy to press the pace.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>As a result, we are unlikely to see anyone speed to the wire with easy fractions.<\/P>

This six-year-old from serious sires (SADLER’S WELLS x SECRETARIAT x VICE REGENT) followed up a promising 106 speed ungraded stakes win in South Dakota with two big whiffs in Grade 1 company, the last in the Flower Pot in New York.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Whether the company was too tough or the big win was just a fluke is open to question.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Cutting back two furlongs to a mile might help her preferred stalking style, but jockey B Brown is having a poor year.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This rail mare seems the longshot her odds indicate.<\/o:p><\/P>

This millionaire four-year-old is from top turf stock (EL PRADO(IRE) x ROBERTO x RAISE A NATIVE) and has been ultra-consistent.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She was just nipped by BARB DYLAN in her last, a Grade 3 at 6 furlongs.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her mile races are as good as anyone\u2019s, including a third in the G1-World Cup Ladies Turf Mile.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She is an ocean crosser as well, working on her sixth intercontinental trip this year coming into this race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That hasn\u2019t tired her yet.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She looks to be third or fourth through the early going before making her move.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Top contender.<\/o:p><\/P>

A four-year-old as well-bred as any in here (KINGMAMBO x SADLER’S WELLS x BUCKPASSER) steps back up to graded company after a fourth in the GR Simsters Mile last month in New York<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has become a turf mile specialist, and ran a nice 108 two races back in California<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That said, the class jump is significant for her, and she may find a crowd following the likely lead horse on the outside.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her solid jockey should help.<\/P>

Mom NIJINSKY TUNE was not too fast, but her pedigree power (GONE WEST x NIJINSKY II) plus top sire Storm Cat is enough to propel this four-year-old into the Grade 1 winning ranks.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>After five straight graded stake trifecta finishes, she tried the boys for the first time last out in the Breeders Bowl Mile.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her disastrous showing in that race could have been a faster pace set by the males, or the beginning of a downturn. \u00a0\u00a0<\/SPAN>She too has crossed oceans more than a half dozen times this year. Her pair of recent 111\u2019s gives her the fastest recent races here, and she simply loves the distance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Having the leading jock aboard completes the picture of a filly who can upset the favorite.<\/o:p><\/P>

This fourteen-time winner keeps knocking on the door in Grade 1s, and has another top chance today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her breeding looks as good for dirt as the green stuff (PULPIT x NORTHERN DANCER x BUCKPASSER), but she has become a turf route specialist this year.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her last two Grade 1 tries were narrow losses, and her consistent speed numbers would have her right in this one at the finish.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has some speed but could be the furthest back early, and in this crowded pace scenario that could work to her benefit.<\/o:p><\/P>

The only three-year-old in the bunch is out of Grade 1-placed dam <\/SPAN>BAKU<\/SPAN><\/st1:place><\/st1:City>, giving her another strong pedigree in the race (FANTASTIC LIGHT x <\/SPAN>DANZIG<\/SPAN><\/st1:place> x PRIVATE ACCOUNT).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She\u2019s been judiciously raced, with only nine starts, but six are wins.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>In her last, the GREEN MONSTER Special, she was less than a length from her first Grade 1 win.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She was uncharacteristically off the lead in that one, and perhaps let winner EAAAXMASGIFT(IRE) slip away with one on the lead.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Although it seems unlikely, she could use her blazing speed to hold the rest of these at bay and steal the win at a price.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>
