Let It Ride Mom (1), tries grass first time after having success on the Woodbine poly; trainer angle on the switch, 15 percent.
Hidden Mystery (2), closed late in last to miss by a half-length against Monmouth overnighters; trainer Servis having an outstanding year.
No More Babies (3), enters having won two straight over Kentucky dirt; first grass starters for conditioner Bauer is only 8 percent, be careful.
Heavenly Score (4), lone turf attempt was a good effort, staying on for a show finish; worked a bullet in prep for this.
India Mantuana (5), showed a strong late kick last out coming from mid-pack to miss by less than a length; Chad Brown having solid meet.
Epping Forest (6), fill is always there, a winner of 3-of-5 career starts, two coming at Belmont which plays well here; Clement breaks thru with this girl.
Yorkiepoo Princess (7), after winning three straight stakes at Aqueduct, filly’s form has gone south, well beaten in her last three; don’t think this is the spot.
Morticia (8), has won 4-of-5 this year along with a second; perfect spot, the one to beat.
Lady Alexandra (9), debuts in the Proctor barn following her stint in the Chad Brown stables where she won two of her last three; don’t ignore this one.
