Race 5: Spinoff (#2)

• The Pace Projector is predicting a situation favoring horses on or near the lead, and he has tactical speed.
• Was wide against a rail bias when only losing the Belmont Stakes by 3 lengths.
• Worked very well in blinkers last week, so he may be ready for a step forward.

Race 8: Victorine (#10)

• Showed real promise in France, finishing a close fourth in a tough Group 3 Prix de Psyche.
• Encountered boggy going in both U.S. starts last season and she may prefer firmer ground.
• Attracts the hot-riding Irad Ortiz for her 4-year-old debut.

Race 9: Killybegs Captain (#2)

• Was badly compromised by a stumbling start and a slow pace last time.
• Has been steadily improving throughout his 5-year-old season and is in career form now.
• The Pace Projector is predicting a situation favoring horses on or near the lead and he should be forwardly placed from the inside.
