Race 1: Its a Ford (#2)
- Had previously earned some competitive speed figures on other circuits before coming into Rob Atras’s barn.
- Ran better than it appears last time, when she closed well over a racetrack that was favoring front-runners.
- Is likely to be an overlay due to the presence of turf horse Shannon’s Girl.

Race 8: Stan the Man (#5)
- Appears to be working very well for his return to the races.
- Is capable of earning competitive speed figures going this distance despite achieving most of his success going longer.
