Gulfstream Park

R7 - Md Clm (30-27.5) (Turf)

#6 Sarah's Sally - Takes the biggest drop in the game.
#1 Lovamor - Money burner finds herself with Wolfson after Pletcher.
#8 Flip the Coin - Dutrow 1ster has decent enough works.

R8 - Alw 44k N1X

#5 First Passage - $1.2 Mil purchase broke maiden from the parking lot.
#9 Light Green - Just missed at odds on in latest.
#3 Firey Glow - Grey filly won at 1st asking and has fired back to back bullets.
#8 Lion Queen - SCR
#1 All of Her Twist - Capable of another step forward off her convincing maiden score.

R9 - South Beach 50k (Turf)

#13 All is Vanity (Fr) - Group 2 winner in home country and this seems to be her favorite distance. Last seen in G3 Violet at the Meadowlands last October.
#7 Flibberjibit - 3rd in extremely strong G3 Honey Fox earlier in the meet and the slight cutback should help.
#1 Raw Silk - Classy filly should be forwardly placed right off the bench.

R10 - MSW 42k

#5 Chapel Affair - McPeek runner looks ready to graduate off steady work pattern.
#1 Zesty Brew - Ran well at 1st asking in the slop and should improve off that effort.

#10 Heros Reward - Solid record and must be used.

#4 My Pal Charlie - Consistent sort has been battling with tough company going longer.

R8 - G2 Jenny Wiley (Turf)

#10 Jamaludin - Will not mind the cut in the ground.
#3 Why Tonto - Adds the hood and expecting much better in 3rd start off a year layoff.
#8 Equitable - One of two with a win on this course and Mott has him ready to fire a big one.
