No. 5 Youmustbea Weasley (7-2) stalked the pace and finally picked up his maiden win at this course and distance July 25, and he earned a decent speed rating that day. He figures to work out another nice tactical trip behind the speed and looks like a solid contender if able to run two alike. 

No. 3 Paid the Preacher (5-1) has the most upside, with just seven career starts. He might be the target for a recently hot barn. 

No. 7 Samurai Song (8-5) is 2-for-25 with zero runner-up finishes. She completed the trifecta 10 times, has not won in quite some time, and will probably take too much win action. 

No. 2 Pure Spring (3-1) stretches out in distance and should attend the pace. He is 3-for-76 with 15 minor awards.
