(# 7) WHATEVERWILLBWILLB - Big effort off the bench in first race since last fall. Stayed on well the whole race from the tricky inside post going 8.5F here on the grass. All turf efforts are strong, and she has also done well over this particular surface(6-1-3-1). Has been given about a month since the seasonal debut, and has a nice maintenance work on 6/23.

(# 2) Higher Incentive - This would be a good time to make a mention of this news. Trainer Gary Contessa is serving a short suspension for an over-medication violation, and assistant trainer, Former trainer Kim Laudati will be the conditioner of record for ALL CONTESSA TRAINED RUNNERS until the suspension is over. This filly won her last at a flat mile, earning her highest ever speed figure. Drew an advantageous outside slot in last, and may have to be used much harder early in this, breaking from the hedge.

(# 8) Square Dancing - Strong grass races in almost all tries on that surface. Makes third start of current cycle, and was only a head behind the top selection in last. Doesn't have as much early speed as the top pair, so she'll need to work out a trip.
