Contender Insights
Thunder Ball

Jockey: L. Allen
Notes: Kentucky-bred with elite sprint pedigree; Mitole offspring often show early speed
Walktheline

Trainer: D. Oberholtzer
Jockey: J.O. Rocha
Notes: Veteran gelding with local experience; rail draw and tactical speed
Streetlight People
Pedigree: Tapiture × Pegastorm
Trainer: C.G. Dennis

Notes: New Mexico-bred with solid form; could benefit from pace pressure
Strategic Outlook
Pace Scenario: Thunder Ball and Walktheline likely to contest the lead; Streetlight People and Crown Ruler may stalk and pounce.
Track Bias: Grande Prairie dirt sprints have favored inside speed and tactical positioning.
X-Factor: Saburo’s Grace has pedigree upside and could surprise if pace collapses.
