|---|---|---|---|---|

Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Lucky Lass. The $300,000 Group 2 Spirit Of Boom Classic for the babies. BESKAR (8) looked handy breaking the maiden status on debut before being tipped out for time to furnish. Has since returned in good order placing in the G3 Kindergarten and must be respected from the Freedman yard. Right in this contest. GALLO NERO (2) hit the frame in the Magic Millions in January before being given time to mature. Tuned up for this with a recent trial win and can run a big race while fresh. The well-related NAVY PILOT (6) (full to 2xG2 winner Tiz Invincible) got the maiden win last time out and will take some confidence from that victory. Top-three candidate. UNITED STATES (7) gets the deadly Waller/McDonald combination and has to be included. COOL ARCHIE (3) has put back-to-back wins together and has earned his shot at this level. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Trifecta 8,2,6,7.
