Fashion Alert - trainer Todd Pletcher sends out Fashion Alert who has just one career start and one impressive win - in the minor 5 1/2 furlong Astoria Stakes with a 88 Beyer Speed Figure at Belmont Park June 14. As the only entry with a stakes win under her belt so far, Fashion Alert looks like the one to catch Friday. John Velazquez rides the overwhelming favorite from post 4 Friday.
Tulira's Star - maiden winner and Richard Mettee trained filly races for just the second time Friday off a 3 1/2 length maiden score with a 88 Beyer Speed Figure (same as Fashion Alert) at Arlington Park June 8. She will have Joe Bravo in the saddle Friday from gate 2 looking to match Fashion Alert but this time in the same race!
Evrybdymstgetstonz - will hit the track for just the second time for trainer Gary Contessa. Her only career start was a good one - a MSW score by six lengths and an OK 59 Beyer Speed Figure at Belmont Park at 23-1 odds July 2. Rosario Montanez will be in the reins from post 3 as Evrybdymstgetstonz races in stakes company for the first time.

She is coming off a win in a Maiden Claiming at Delaware Park June 4 - her third career start after a third and a fifth respectively in a pair of similar races at Pimlico this spring.

Take Charge Brandi - has just one career start for trainer D. Wayne Lukas and it was a nice 4 1/2 furlong wire-to-wire maiden win at Churchill Downs June 22.
