Dixiana Breeders' Futurity 2013 | Remaining Contenders

Ready for Action - is coming off a second in his stakes debut - the minor Fitz Dixon Jr. Memorial Juvenile Stake at Presque Isle Downs after two straight wins on that track - an Allowance and a MSW in the month of August. In five starts he has two wins, a second and a third place finish. He has been successful in his limited experience thus far - hopes are that he can keep the roll going Saturday.

Tiznowforamerica - will race for the third time for trainer Thomas Albertini but is coming off an impressive maiden score at Saratoga September 2 after a third in his debut on that same track August 10.

General Jack - General Jack won the minor Shakopee Stakes at Canterbury Park by three lengths last time out August 3 for trainer Michael Maker in his second career start after a second in a MSW behind Tiger Bourbon at Belmont Park July 12. He is one of just a few stakes winners in the field and should be competitive in the Breeders' Futurity.

We Miss Artie - Todd Pletcher hopeful had a three length MSW score August 11 after a second in his debut in a similar race at Belmont Park July 4. Last time out was a disappointing sixth in his stakes debut - in the Grade 2 With Anticipation Stakes at Saratoga August 29. He will be looking for a strong bounce back when he leaves from post 12 Saturday.

Intense Holiday - Todd Pletcher trained colt has just two career starts - a fifth in his debut at Monmouth Park July 27 and a nice win last time out in a MSW on that same track August 31. He departs from the rail Saturday.
