Horse-by-Horse Analysis
1. Mythical (FL)
Pedigree: St Patrick’s Day × Lailoni (by Brethren)
Trainer: Jorge Delgado
Jockey: Emisael Jaramillo
Morning Line Odds: 4/5 (Favorite)
Notes: Undefeated Florida-bred filly with a dominant win over males in the Tremont Stakes. Posted a field-best 93 Beyer Speed Figure. Smart, tactical, and beautifully built. The one to beat.
2. Spa Prospector (KY)
Pedigree: Authentic × Pray for Leslie (by Bernardini)
Trainer: Thomas M. Amoss
Jockey: Dylan Davis
Morning Line Odds: 10/1
Notes: First-crop filly by Authentic. Bernardini dam line adds stamina. May need more seasoning but has upside.
3. Angel Gift (KY)
Pedigree: Connect × Georgie’s Angel (by Bellamy Road)
Trainer: Todd A. Pletcher
Jockey: Irad Ortiz, Jr.
Morning Line Odds: 6/1
Notes: Well-bred filly from a stakes-winning dam. Pletcher and Irad combo is lethal at Saratoga. Could improve second out.
4. Tiz in Sight (KY)
Pedigree: Tiz the Law × Hindsight (by Lookin At Lucky)
Trainer: Mark E. Casse
Jockey: Jose L. Ortiz
Morning Line Odds: 8/1
Notes: First-crop filly by Tiz the Law. Casse excels with juveniles. Could be a sleeper if pace heats up.
5. Meringue (KY)
Pedigree: Frosted × Catbrier (by Tale of the Cat)
Trainer: Rodolphe Brisset
Jockey: Flavien Prat
Morning Line Odds: 10/1
Notes: Frosted filly with a strong closing kick. Prat aboard adds confidence. May need a perfect trip.
6. Iron Orchard (KY)
Pedigree: Authentic × Onebrethatatime (by Bodemeister)
Trainer: Danny Gargan
Jockey: Joel Rosario
Morning Line Odds: 5/2
Notes: Debut winner with sharp speed. Authentic × Bodemeister pedigree suggests stamina and class. Major threat to Mythical.
