Silver Splendor is a three year old multiple graded winning daughter of Badge of Silver, out of a Danzig<\/st1:place> mare.\u00a0 <\/span>After running on the turf as a two year old and one turf race at the first of her three year old year, Squity made a switch to dirt.\u00a0 <\/span>After a great dirt campaign she ran on turf last out for a Graded score with a 102 speed figure over a wet turf track at seven furlongs.\u00a0 <\/span>In her lone turf route she faded towards the end.\u00a0 <\/span>Squity says he has her conditioned to run a mile in this one though.\u00a0 <\/span>Her true test will be if she can compete with these older horses.\u00a0 <\/span>Look for her to be sitting mid pack down the backstretch and make a move coming around the final turn.<\/p>\n

Commander Geri is a four year old stakes winning daughter of Geri, out of a Deputy Commander mare.\u00a0 <\/span>Her last race was an eight furlong turf race in which she ran a 104 speed figure.\u00a0 <\/span>Her best race came at this distance in March where she posted a blazing 108.\u00a0 <\/span>She has proven to run just as well if not better on wet tracks, having two wins and a second from her three off track turf races.\u00a0 <\/span>She should be sitting toward the back of this field turning for home and make a bold move coming down the stretch.<\/p>\n

Desert Theatre is a four year old graded placed daughter of Theatrical, out of a Green<\/st1:placename> Desert<\/st1:placetype><\/st1:place> mare.\u00a0 <\/span>After two five furlong sprint tries she goes back to her best distance.\u00a0 <\/span>Her last three races at a mile or more have all been triple digit speed figures.\u00a0 <\/span>This will be her first try on an off track, but with her breeding I don\u2019t think it will be a factor.\u00a0 <\/span>She is the lone speed horse in this race, so watch for her to try and take this race from gate to wire.<\/p>\n

Blue Panther is a four year old stakes placed daughter of Unbridled\u2019s Song, out of a Storm Cat mare.\u00a0 <\/span>Her last race was an eight furlong turf race where she posted a 108 speed figure.\u00a0 <\/span>Her last three races at a mile or 1 1\/16 have all been triple digits speeds, with one of those coming on an off track.\u00a0 <\/span>She seems to like to stalk the pace so look for Cooper to have her close to the lead.<\/p>\n

Knowing Looks is a four year old stakes winning daughter of Dynaformer, out of a Kingmambo mare.\u00a0 <\/span>Her last race was a 7.5 furlong turf race with a speed figure of 105.\u00a0 <\/span>In her last seven races, she posted speed figures of 103 and better.\u00a0 <\/span>She\u2019s ran a 109 at 8.5 furlongs so this distance should suit her well.\u00a0 <\/span>She looks to be equally strong on off tracks with a win and a second from two wet races.\u00a0 <\/span>She has a versatile running style, and likes to rate, but if pace is too slow look for her to take over and control the race.<\/p>\n
