Horse-by-Horse Analysis

Takethemoneyhoney (Post 4, 3/1): Moore trainee with stellar record (1‑1211). Tactical speed and consistency make her the one to beat.

Onyx Ten (Post 1, 9/2): Capuano’s filly, sharp recent wins, rail draw gives early pace advantage. Major threat.

Grammy Girl (Post 3, 5/1): Joseph Jr. filly, consistent graded‑level form. Strong finisher, dangerous if pace collapses.

Alani (Post 12, 6/1): Moore’s second entry, wide draw but reliable form (215122). Exotics contender.

Sultry Lass (Post 2, 6/1): Veteran mare with graded experience. Russell aboard adds confidence. Value play.

Passage East (Post 11, 8/1): McMahon’s 3yo filly, unbeaten streak before last start. Upset potential.

St. Benedicts Prep (Post 8, 8/1): Linda Rice mare, versatile but inconsistent. Exotics depth.

Miss Harriett (Post 9, 20/1): Boyce aboard; local filly with flashes of talent. Longshot.

Others (Bailintin, Wisconsin Gal, Spencerian, Gallop d’Hermes): Outsiders needing career‑best efforts.
