Race 10: Take Charge Aubrey (#5)

• Arguably ran her best race going this distance at Saratoga last season.
• Has earned some of the best speed figures in this field, but may get overlooked due to the presence of so many debut winners.
• Reportedly worked well in her recent 5-furlong drill on July 13 and may be ready to go off the layoff.
