GOT STORMY stands out in this. Mark Casse’s mare is a high-class Grade 1 winner on the Turf and was beaten only a neck at the highest level at Santa Anita in March. She’ll take all the beating despite a wide draw if anywhere near her best. Noor Sahara debuts for Chad Brown’s powerful yard having won twice in France last year while stablemate Tapit Today was placed in Grade 3 company last time. The unbeaten Valiance returns to action having won a stakes race at Monmouth last summer while Silver Kitten finished in front of Valedictorian when runner-up in a Grade 3 contest here in February. W W Fitzy and Bella Ciao have something to prove at this level and the latter will only race if this switches to the Dirt.
