ATCHAFALAYA(CA) – the California bred two year old is bred out the ying-yang. This nice looking colt, trained by gagan<\/I>, is by CA leading sire Bertrando <\/I>out of a Northern Dancer <\/I>x Seattle Slew<\/I> mare. Easy to see why this horse is the co-morning line favorite and should be up to the challenge while making his debut over the California turf\u2026class of the field<\/P>

<\/P>

NORTHERN KNIGHT(CAN) <\/B>– is making the cross country trip for the jetman <\/I>connections. Evenly in his well-bet New York debut, this Canadian bred North Light(IRE) <\/I>colt should appreciate the added half a furlong\u2026eligible to improve <\/P>

<\/P>

VALID ALEX(TX) <\/B>– this 2yo Texas bred, from the stables of the 2011 Bluegrass Derby winner, is making his seventh appearance of this young 2yo season. Turning back from a mile, this ads <\/I>trained colt by Valid Expectations <\/I>is eligible to improve off that that 5 furlong outing in Wyoming two back, and could light up the board at 31-1…might surprise <\/P>

<\/P>

FREUDIAN JINX(NY) <\/B>– hailing from the riviere <\/I>stables is this 2 year old son of Freud<\/I>. From a multi-stakes winning mare MEDIEVAL JINX <\/B>, this colt appears to be getting the Rodney Dangerfield treatment by the morning line handicapper at the long odds of 51-1…Christmas in August <\/P>

<\/P>

CAMAZOTZ TOUCH(NY) <\/B>– top turf trainer, and conditioner of the sensational KING TACHYON(JPN)<\/B>, daniel <\/I>is hoping the third times a charm for this son of Touch Gold<\/I>. Third and second respectively in his two starts, this New York bred colt, from a Capote <\/I>x Nijinsky <\/I>mare, is primed to foil the chances of top two\u2026edge to upset <\/P>

<\/P>

BAYOU YOU(WA) <\/B>– part of a gajan <\/I>coupling, this You and I<\/I> bred colt, from an equally impressive Unbridled\u2019s Song <\/I>x A.P. Indy <\/I>mare is making his 4th<\/SUP> career start. Impressed favorably in his turf debut last out, the Washington bred colt will benefit from a fast pace and could be a stretch menace here on Saturday\u2026chance off best <\/P>

<\/P>

GONE TB GONE(CA) <\/B>– from the testbarn <\/I>stables, this Californian bred son of Royal Regatta (IRE) <\/I>has gotten a good view of the field in his five career starts. Moves up in the off going, but the weatherman promises a firm turf on Saturday\u2026look elsewhere<\/P>

<\/P>

TEST DICE(TX) <\/B>– running under the colors of the Lone Star Racing <\/I>stables is the 2yo son of Dynameaux<\/I>, out of stakes producing Sadler\u2019s Wells <\/I>mare. Well-placed in his debut, this modest Texas bred is taking some interest at the betting windows. He might need one\u2026proceed cautiously <\/P>

<\/P>

JUST ONE DANCE(CA) <\/B>– second in his racing debut, this California son of Bouccaneer(FR) <\/I>did not move forward in his second start when he never fired finishing 10th<\/SUP> for the teejay <\/I>stables. Not a lot of pedigree here to convince me this horse can improve at this level\u2026 pass <\/P>

<\/P>

DANCE MAGIC(MD) <\/B>– Maryland bred colt from the trotter1 <\/I>stables, this Street Magician <\/I>colt turned in an impressive effort in his debut, and a repeat of that performance could be enough to take this home\u2026dangerous <\/P>

<\/P>

MOONSHINE IN BRIT(NY) <\/B>– 99-1 Malibu Moonshine <\/I>colt was far back in two lifetime starts but switches to turf for the first time. The jrm <\/I>colt would have to absolutely love the turf to be a factor on Saturday, but who knows, he just might\u2026must show more <\/P>

<\/P>

MARDI GRAS SLEW(LA) <\/B>– hard to believe that this Brahms <\/I>colt from a Seattle Slew <\/I>x Nijinsky <\/I>mare has failed to earn a dollar in two starts. The LA bred colt from the ryga <\/I>stables is another trying the turf for the first time, and unlike the horse above, this colt has the back-end to seriously consider. At 10-1, even the track handicapper thinks so\u2026your call <\/P>

<\/P>

GAMBLER CAT(CA) <\/B>– makes his fifth start for the ads <\/I>stables. Second half of the coupling, this Awesome Gambler <\/I>colt is from a stakes producing Storm Cat <\/I>x Gone West <\/I>mare and has turned in back-to-back impressive outings, the latter a 2nd<\/SUP> place finish in an open company MSW event. California bred has improved with every start, and if that trend continues he will be getting his picture taken on Saturday\u2026one to beat <\/P>

<\/P>

HOOPS CHAMP(NY) <\/B>– makes his debut from the hartack <\/I>stables. The Alphabet Soup <\/I>NY bred debuts on the turf for 52% turf sire, but has his work cut out for himself on Saturday. Morning line 51-1 might mean he is a notch below these\u2026maybe next time<\/P>

<\/P>

DARK MINISTRY(NY) <\/B>– makes third start for the kingman <\/I>stables. The speedy 2yo NY bred out of Touch Gold <\/I>has yet to earn a paycheck in his two starts over the dirt finishing 10th<\/SUP> and 6th<\/SUP> respectively, but his 61 and 65 speed figures indicate he has been keeping pretty good company and a switch to the turf just might be the answer\u2026one to watch<\/P>

<\/P>

GOLDEN ROME(NY) <\/B>– debuting for the kingab <\/I>conglomerate, this NY bred Golden Missile <\/I>colt out of the multiple stakes winning, stakes producing Giant\u2019s Causeway <\/I>mare LADY OF ROME(IRE)<\/B>. ESR\u2019s leading trainer has this NY bred poised for a top effort\u2026don\u2019t overlook <\/P>

<\/P>

TB VALENTINE(TX) <\/B>– Texas bred filly out of AP Valentine <\/I>out of the Twelve Oaks Farms <\/I>makes her debut over the California turf. First foal from a mare who made her living on the dirt, the TX bred filly looks for the boys to cut her some slack for her debut\u2026no gentlemen here <\/P>

<\/P>

CAPTAIN HI TOP(NY) <\/B>– far back in his racing debut, the mjb <\/I>trained son of Coal Play <\/I>will look to re-affirm his connects aspirations in his second start. From an Afleet Alex <\/I>mare that won three races as a two year old, this colt is eligible to improve, but I think that improvement has to come on the dirt\u2026not with these <\/P>

<\/P>

HAWTHORN ROSES(CA) <\/B>– another first time starter with impeccable breeding, the hawkz <\/I>scratch bred Bertrando <\/I>colt is out of a Danehill <\/I>x Secretariat <\/I>mare and has all the looks of top race horse. Has to overcome poor post in this one, but sure has pedigree to do it\u2026big shot if ready<\/P>
