This will be the Sangaree's first race in his new barn since Godolphin decided close it's US operations (he will still be running in Godolphin colors though). Soaring Empire is the defending champ, but stretching out to a mile is what Jackson Bend has been asking for. Our Dark Knight could suprise people as well.

Obviously the big reason why Flat Out is in here and not the Hal's Hope is for feet reasons (he's had quarter cracks in the past). Yummy with Butter won two stakes last year, but had faultered down the stretch. Hoofit was screwed in the BC Turf Sprint by being basically taken out of the race, Hollinger was third last time out in a G3. Charly is trying to rebound from 2 4th place finishes, Teaks North shocked everyone in the UN, but faultered down the stretch. Santiva ran in the Derby and Belmont, but this is only his second start since June.
Picks
Hal's Hope: Jackson
Ft. L: Flat Out
The Smarty Jones on Monday will feature a boys vs girl senerio as On Fire Baby starts her campaign for possible try at the Derby. Don't forget about the live chat on Monday as well!
