9) Art of Almost (Attfield/Jaramillo); filly tired in a real Belmont distance test last out; she’s a two-time Graded Stakes in the money finisher who will love the cutback today.
7) Mindt (Walsh/Gaffalione); Irish-bred filly fired at first North American rallying past Tampa first level allowance ladies; strong late kick.
5) Always Shopping (Pletcher/Saez)); in her first turf attempt, Grade 2 Gazelle winner makes her 2020 racing debut after being on the shelf since 2019″s Black-Eyed Susan. These connections would not put her in this spot for a test run.
