Declassify (Orientate): Won the Triple Bend in his last. Lone start on synth was a win (at Hollywood last year).

Pablo Del Monte (Giant's Causeway): 6th in the Preakness and 3rd in the Bluegrass before that. Dam set a world record for 5 furlongs at Keeneland, but ran only okay after that.

Seeking the Sherif (Officer): Stakes debut, has been running in Allowance/Optional Claiming after being claimed in December. Has only lost once for his new connections.

Big Macher (Beau Genius): Won the Potrero Grande in April and hasn't run since than. Best finish at Del Mar has been 3rd.

Kobe's Back (Flatter): Winless since his San Vincete win in February this year. Best finish has been 3rd against the inconsistent Coup de Grace.

Wine Police (Speightstown): 8th in Allowance/Optional Claimer in his last after finishing 5th in the Triple Bend. Last win was in September at Remington.
