John The Beer Man⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Kendrick Carmouche| T: Rob Atras| OR: 107| BF| D

25/1

Off nearly 2 years before returning for new yard as a revived model sprinting. Followed a close third in the Grade 1 Jaipur at Saratoga in June with victory in the Grade 2 Troy there in August. Didn't get to the front at Kentucky Downs last time and needs to bounce back.

Form: 1/11317

Shisospicy¹⁸³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Luis Saez| T: J D Angelo| OR: 107| BF| D

20/1

A speedy sort who confirmed herself a smart filly by ending her 2025 season with success in this race at Del Mar. Didn't get her own way on return at Churchill Downs in May, finishing well beaten. Off 6 months but has been working well up to defending her title and can't be dismissed.

Form: 11011-7

Bacio⁷¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Juan Hernandez| T: Wesley Ward| OR: 102| D

7/4

Highly-progressive individual who has won 5 of his 6 starts. Won at Churchill Downs on return then put in some scintillating performances when landing 27-runner Palace of Holyroodhouse Stakes (Handicap) at Royal Ascot and Group 1 Nunthorpe Stakes at York in the summer. Strictly the one to catch.

Form: 121-111

Roja⁹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Manuel Franco| T: H Motion| OR: 103| D

33/1

Useful filly who's 3-3 this year. Landed the Grade 2 Intercontinental at Saratoga in June and didn't need to improve to win 6-runner non-graded stakes at Colonial Downs when last seen in August. In open company here but may not yet have finished improving.

Form: 121-111

Time To Dazzle²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Oisin Murphy| T: Mark Casse| OR: 110| D

20/1

Had been knocking on the door on several occasions before opening her account for the year in Grade 2 Franklin over C&D earlier this month by short head from Kehoe Beach. Career best required in this spot.

Form: 457221

Yellow Card¹⁸²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Flavien Prat| T: Michael McCarthy| OR: 116| D

14/1

Made a promising start to the season winning non-graded stakes at Santa Anita in February and quickly regained the winning thread in the Grade 2 Turf Sprint at Churchill Downs when last seen in May. Has gone well fresh before but this is tough after 6 months off.

Form: 256-121

(7)

Comanche Brave⁴⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Loughnane| T: Donnacha O Brien| OR: 118| D

2/1

Wootton Bassett colt who's got better with age, scoring 3 times this season. His last 2 runs have seen him win at the highest level in the July Cup at Newmarket and Flying Five at the Curragh, the latter on his first start at 5f. This is another speed test and he can surely go well.

Form: 351711

Possiblemente⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Jose Ortiz| T: Joe Sharp| OR: 108| D

50/1

Battle-hardened sort who seemed better than ever when winning 11-runner Grade 2 Turf Sprint Stakes at Kentucky Downs last time. Has a good record this season but this may be a step too far.

Form: 115121

(9)

In Our Time⁶³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Micah Husbands| T: S Joseph Jr| OR: 112| D

40/1

Confirmed herself a smart mare with success in Grade 2 Giant Causeway over C&D in April. Followed that with some lesser efforts but got back to winning ways right at the top level in the Ladies Turf Sprint Stakes at Kentucky Downs in August. Freshened up for this since but it will be tougher.

Form: 2-91531

(10)

Cy Fair⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: John Velazquez| T: George Weaver| OR: 114| BF| D

10/1

Found things panning out ideally when winning the Juvenile Turf Sprint at this meeting last year at Del Mar. Added a pair of Grade 3s at Churchill Downs and Saratoga this season and can have last run at Kentucky Downs overlooked. She's one to consider taking on her elders for the first time.

Form: 11-3116

Joe Shiesty²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Fernando Cruz La De| T: Eric Foster| OR: 112| D

25/1

Has struck up a good partnership with this jockey, winning 4 of his last 7 under attacking rides. Comes here off the back of success in the Grade 2 Woodford over C&D by ½ length from No Nay Hudson 4 weeks ago and another bold bid is predicted.

Form: 152211

Sorrento Sky³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Umberto Rispoli| T: Philip D Amato| OR: 115| D

25/1

Took his form up another level when winning last 2 starts from off the pace at Grade 2 level in Green Flash Handicap at Del Mar and Eddie D at Santa Anita. Could find things setting up perfectly here but will need a career best to prevail.

Form: 244311

Starlust⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 117| BF| D

16/1

Won this in 2024 before spending a brief period at stud the following year. Took time to come to hand this campaign but gradually confirmed he remains a smart performer when second to Bacio and fourth to Comanche Brave in Group 1s. Can give his running but hard to see him turning the tables.

Form: 604244

Miss Yechance²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Jack Nicholls| T: K R Burke| OR: 110| D

20/1

Won a handicap in the UAE earlier in the year but hasn't looked back since being in the care of Karl Burke. Added another handicap at York before winning the Group 3 World Trophy at Newbury and then the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp. Drawn wide but capable of being in the mix.

Forecasts

Bacio (7/4), Comanche Brave (2/1), Cy Fair (10/1), Yellow Card (14/1), No Nay Hudson (15/1), Starlust (16/1), Time To Dazzle (20/1), Miss Yechance (20/1), Shisospicy (20/1), Big Mojo (20/1), Doncho (20/1), Sorrento Sky (25/1), Joe Shiesty (25/1), John The Beer Man (25/1), Outfielder (30/1), Roja (33/1), In Our Time (40/1), Possiblemente (50/1)

BACIO made such a big impression racing in Europe earlier in the summer and, thanks to a good draw, can add another top-level success to his name. Comanche Brave has been an improved sprinter this season and can chase the selection home with last year's winner Shisospicy not one to be written off.
