In depth

Verdict

Several of these have won Grade 1 trials, including Del Mar winner Union Strike. She was ahead of subsequent course and distance winner Noted And Quoted in September but has changed trainer since and missed a prep-race with sore shins. The latter beat With Honors and Champagne Room when landing the Chandler here and jockey Rafael Bejarano stays loyal having ridden unbeaten stablemate American Gal in both of her wins. Dancing Rags beat Daddys Lil Darling in a slow-run Alcibiad Stakes at Keeneland while Todd Pletcher’s Sweet Loretta dead-heated for first in the Spinaway at Saratoga. Undefeated Grade 1 winner YELLOW AGATE was well ahead of Colorful Charades when landing the Frizette at Belmont. She had earlier beaten subsequent maiden winner Jamyson ’n Ginger so Christophe Clement’s filly gets a speculative vote to come out best in a wide-open renewal. Valadorna has only won a maiden at Keeneland but the Curlin filly did so by six lengths and represents a powerful yard.
