He was second in the 1 1/16-mile Gun Runner Stakes and third in a six-furlong stakes at Keeneland before that. Raise Cain (30-1): If you toss out his start on a synthetic track last time, there are things to like. JOCKEY: Trevor McCarthy TRAINER: Brad Coxġ2.

Slip Mahoney is coming off a determined maiden win but might have been more impressive the time before that when he lost by a head to Pletcher's Tapit Trice, who won his next start by eight lengths. Slip Mahoney (5-1): Trainer Brad Cox has been a force on the Triple Crown trail and this is one of two Cox starters in the field. JOCKEY: Dylan Davis TRAINER: Michael McCarthyġ1. This figures to be a much tougher test with plenty of company for him on the front end, but his workouts indicate he has maintained his form since the Jan. Lugan Knight (6-1): He will surely like the distance as he won the Jerome Stakes here earlier this year, which was also contested at a one-turn mile.

JOCKEY: Kendrick Carmouche TRAINER: Todd Pletcherġ0. He seems to be getting better and can be a contender here at a one-turn mile. Trained by Todd Pletcher, he was second in the six-furlong Jimmy Winkfield Stakes last time out.

Clubhouse (20-1): Much like Uncorrelated, his connections make him attractive. JOCKEY: Jevian Toledo TRAINER: Brittany Russellĩ. He's also entered in a Monday stakes at Parx Racing. He was third in the San Vicente Stakes (G2) at seven furlongs in just his second start and could make his presence felt, if he runs. His credentials are not as strong as Carmel Road. Fort Warren (12-1): Another former Baffert runner. Trying to figure what he'll do here is a guessing game, but would not toss him if you're playing the exotics and might use him as a saver play at the right odds.Ĩ. Transect (15-1): He's never run on dirt, but he is by Gun Runner out of an A.P.
