Race 5
Virginia-restricted Maidens Sprint on the grass in a field where light starters showed speed but did not necessarily keep it.

| 6. Finestkind | Casse’s Virginia-Foked gelding (Chance Farm-Gordonsville) turns Gallardo on board, who might have to temper the early tempoter. |
| 4. Volunteer Fireman | Shipping from Monmouth is Ryan’s Colt, who showed speed on the dirt, but has shown a much other style on the turf. |

The first peat route of the evening goes 1 1/16 miles for two -year -old girls, a nice place to be fat with disability.
| 5. Saratoga Slack | Both McPeek and Sormeaux have longshots that make their second start among different terms. A nod to a better breeding of turf here. |
| 3. See the King | Had a victory at Colonial is his last start for about 8 minutes until a disqualification reunited him with girls, a solid choice to deliver again. |
| 6. Practical joker | Stidham’s Colt stormed the lane on the Turf of Delaware in a length of a victory in his first start. That was on 7 1/2 Furlongs. |
