Race Analysis & Betting Insights

Immersive, trained by Brad Cox, is the undefeated 2024 Eclipse Award Champion 2-Year-Old Filly. She returns after a layoff due to bone bruising, but her dominant Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies victory makes her the clear favorite.

Princess Aliyah, with Into Mischief bloodlines, brings speed and stamina, making her a dangerous front-runner.

Running Away, sired by Gun Runner, has proven late acceleration, making her a strong closer.

Anna’s Promise, who finished fifth in the Kentucky Oaks, could thrive in a pace duel.
