Las Vegas, NV - The 38th running of the Grade 3 Hill Prince Stakes is on tap for this Saturday, June 16th from Belmont Park. Three year olds will go one mile on Belmont's turf course in search of their share of the $150,000 purse.

11 horses will line up in race 8 on Belmont's Saturday schedule. Post time is 4:34 PM. Let's take a look at the 11 entries and the three main track only competitors entered in this Grade 3 event.

2012 Hill Prince Stakes Race Favorites

Summer Front - started with three wins and a second in his first four career starts but has cooled slightly since. Summer Front finished an impressive second in his graded stakes debut in the Grade 3 Lexington Stakes on April 21st and followed it up with a rather disappointing eighth in the Grade 2 Peter Pan Stakes most recently on May 12th. Summer Front is undefeated on grass and is definitely the favorite heading into Saturday's race.

Howe Great - had an impressive streak of four straight wins interrupted with a fifth in the Grade 1 Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland in April and bounced back with a respectable third last time out in the American Turf Stakes in May 4th. His four career wins in seven starts include the Grade 3 Palm Beach Stakes at Gulfstream on March 11th and the Kitten Joy Stakes prior to that. Like Summer Front, Howe Great returns to turf where he is much, much more effective, going three for four on that surface.

Big Screen - most recently finished fifth in the Grade 2 Peter Pan after a decent second in the Calder Derby but he has just one win in seven career starts. In four races in 2012 Big Screen has a pair if second place finishes.

Shkspeare Shaliyah - has looked good at times in his six race career posting consecutive wins toward the end of 2011 - a Maiden Special Weight score followed by a win at the Grade 3 Pilgrim Stakes at Belmont in October.
