Pegasus Filly & Mare Turf | Grade 2

1 1/16 miles turf – 4 year old fillies and mares

Chad Brown trained Chili Flag is likely to go off the favorite. Brown puts Flavien Prat aboard the Forever Together listed stakes winner.

Horseplayers will bet Cairo Consort. Todd Pletcher trains. Cairo Consort should improve off the fourth place finish in the Tropical Oaks in the last.

Accomplished Girl, a Saffie Joseph trained runner, and Star Fortress from the Cherie Devaux barn, can win. Full Court Felicia, the always dangerous Fluffy Socks, Queen Goddess, Mission of Joy, and Ruby Nell make the Pegasus Filly & Mare Turf a challenging to handicap race.

Pegasus World Cup Turf Invitational | Grade 1

1 1/8 miles turf – 4 year olds & up

The top finishers in the Grade 2 Hill Prince, Integration and I’m Very Busy, both have a chance. Integration hails from the Shug McGaughey barn and Chad Brown puts the saddle on I’m Very Busy.

Atone is an attractive price play. The Mike Maker trained runner finished eighth in the Turf Mile in the last. Atone is better than the finish.

Todd Pletcher trained Jerry the Nipper, Grade 1 Hollywood Derby finisher Webslinger, and Grade 2 Ft Lauderdale finisher Kingmax should attract betting dollars. Warm Heart, third in the Grade 1 Hong Kong Vase in the last, will go off the chalk.

Pegasus World Cup | Grade 1

1 1/8 miles dirt – 4 year olds & up

Bob Baffert’s 2023 Preakness winner, National Treasure, is the 9-to-5 morning line chalk. National Treasure will try to wire the field, which might be difficult to accomplish because Brad Cox trained First Mission, the 7-to-2 second choice, breaks next door to National Treasure.

Longshots with a chance include Grade 3 Harland’s Holiday winner O’Connor, Hoist the Gold, which won the Grade 2 Cigar Mile in the last, and Todd Pletcher trained Dynamic One. Skippylongstocking finished third in the Breeders’ Cup Mile. Give Skippy a shot if you believe post position won’t kill the Saffie Joseph Jr. trained equine’s chances.

San Pasqual Handicap | Grade 2

1 1/8 miles dirt – 4 year olds & up

Finding the winner in this Saturday’s San Pasqual won’t be easy. Newgrange, Stilleto Boy, Mr. Fisk, Wizard of Westwood, Mixto, Salesman, and Subsandor should all line up at the gate.

Newgrange, the Grade 2 San Antonio winner, will likely break from the gate the chalk. Stilleto Boy has a decent fan base. Mixto finished second in the San Antonio. So those two will go off second and third choice.

A top contender is Richard Mandella trained Salesman. The Grade 2 Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance winner looks like a potential monster. Salesman could offer overlay odds and warrants a big look if Mandella decides to go with the Dubawi sired runner.
