#18 ranked 3 yr old.  Won the Gr III Legoland back in Jan and has gone GR I & II ever since and paid off with a pair of 2nd<\/sup>\u2019s the last two times out.  A career 115SP in 8F in Florida Man mile has got to get Owner Beerkeg excited about this start and the upcoming season.  Local star jockey Hansen has the mount and is 1\/2 on Buzzkilla in his career with the win being in a ALW and a 14th<\/sup> in the Cali Derby so hope he learned. The good news is he gets the rail as opposed to way outside last time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#24 ranked of 5 yr olds and a late entry on Halloween Day was the trick or treat for Owner Tees.  First time GR 1 race, that has come off 2 solid GR II wins the past two months @ 9F  and will be looking for the first time at 8F since his debut maiden 17 starts ago.  Trailing the field and looking for fast fractions will set this one up nicely as he has done well out of close to rail PP\u2019s also those past two starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#9 ranked 3 yr old that also is going a mile for first time in GR 1. Like rival American Fervor he has been here training the past couple of months.  Running his 6th<\/sup> consecutive GR 1 and looking for his first mile win and owner Squity will have to rely on jockey Wyatt to decide on pace or stalking strategy with the new shortened distance for him and speed that\u2019s already in here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#2 ranked Smoking Steel is a miler specialist with 9 wins at this distance and 3 of those GR 1. He comes here to exact some revenge from last year running 3rd<\/sup> in this one.  Started his 2023 campaign here in CA with a stakes 4th<\/sup> then posted a career high 122 SP in the Cosmopolitan Gr 1 before stumbling in the GR 2 Foolish Tom (8th<\/sup>).  Bounced back in the GR 1 Independence with a win and 118 SP to capture his 2nd<\/sup> GR 1 this season and you gotta wonder if drawing the 5 hole PP wise will benefit after winning in the 4 & 6 hole this season already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#18 ranked 4y old and one of 2 sired Tapit\u2019s in here.  Was in the BB Dirt Mile last year and stumbled out of the gate 8th<\/sup> and just never recovered (9th<\/sup>).  The bright side is Owner ASR has rebuilt his confidence by recording a 1st<\/sup> or 2nd<\/sup> in 4 of past 5 starts.  Thus overlooking that these have been at 9F makes me think it could be a tough hill here still at the shorter mile. Jockey T.Small coming in from Germany shows you just how bad ASR wants this victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#10 ranked 3 yr old fresh off a GR II win SP 118.  After a hectic summer with 3 months solid racing. Owner wtas made the smart decision to rest him and properly get him set for this being his biggest race of his short career to date.  Like some 3yr olds he\u2019s been inconsistent at times which makes bettors wonder which horse they\u2019re gonna see today?  He has the talent and pedigree to contend here, so here is hoping veteran jockey Cahill can guide to the winners circle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#15 ranked 3 yr old and looks to be finding stride.  Coming off a career high 112 SP in the Gr II LA Derby in Louisiana even though just getting edged out down the stretch.  Like other 3 yr old in here, he did the Eddie Haskall and Bluegrass Derby with limited success (4th<\/sup> & 12th<\/sup>) Owner Amir deferred to the shortened distance hoping to catch the spark.  This son of Tapit should be one to watch next season regardless of what happens in this race as he just seems to be reaching potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11 Graded Races in 20 Starts makes you think hard about this #3 ranked 5 yr old and having jockey D. Givens back for his regular GR 1 duty helps.  3 GR 1 and all shows this season and a showdown with Smoking Steel here again makes for excitement and intrigue.  His other 2 starts this season were GR III 1st<\/sup> and 2nd<\/sup> but were at 8.5 F and him being a front runner this shortening up will only help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#17 ranked 3 yr old looks to achieve what mom Explosive Road couldn\u2019t as a 3 yr old filly, Win a GR 1 race.  Has already more wins than mom ever did as well and has won his last two starts (GR II races @ 8.5F).  Has been training here since Aug after winning the LA Holla.  Not sure why but jockey Haack is taking over the reins and will be interesting to see what strategy Owner Given has in either going for the lead or just sit off the pace back off the lead?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

#4 ranked, leading $$ earner and former HOY honours in his 2yr old season. Looks to go into his 14th<\/sup> career GR 1 race and get back to the winners circle that\u2019s eluded him since FEB this year.  This horse has done everything from a BB Juv win to Bluegrass showing and brides maid in this race last year.  Not sure what were gonna see here as for strategy? Early 2yr old days he loved to set the pace and go w2w. But this year owner Foundational has had him sit just off the pace for his past 5 starts with limited success (2 2nds in 5) so wonder if they will go back to pace setter?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
