2017 Starlet Stakes Entries at Los Alamitos

Dream Tree

Has two career starts for trainer Bob Baffert with two nice wins. Last time out was a successful stakes debut - an impressive nose-win in the listed Desi Arnaz Stakes at Del Mar November 18 after a maiden score at first asking at Santa Anita October 27. Dream Tree hasn't been touched so far and hopes to remain undefeated Saturday in her major step up in competition - with Drayden Van Dyke in the reins from post 3.

Piedi Bianchi

Doug O'Neill trained filly has a win and two seconds and a third-place finish in her five career starts. She made her stakes debut September 2 and finished a decent second at 18-1 behind Moonshine Memories in the G1 Del Mar Debutante Stakes September 2 and followed that with a third behind Moonshine Memories and Alluring Star in the G1 Chandelier Stakes at Santa Anita September 30 and her only off-the-board finish - a fifth last time out in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies at Del Mar November 4. Before those results were a 1 1/4 length maiden score at Del Mar August 12 and a second in her debut here July 6. Piedi Bianchi has been in the mix every time out and will be in search of her first stakes score Saturday from gate 2 with Kyle Frey guiding her.

Exuberance

Ian Kruljac trained filly has three career starts and has placed in all - one win and a pair of third-place finishes. She makes her graded stakes debut Saturday having finally broken maiden last time out - by an eye-opening 6 1/4 lengths at Santa Anita October 13. Before that were consecutive thirds - the minor Barretts Debutante Stakes on this track September 16 and in a MSW to start her career - at Del Mar August 26. Exuberance has been competitive so far and shoots for a first stakes score from the rail. Tyler Baze will be in the saddle.

War Heroine

Will race for just the second time for trainer Peter Miller having posted a win in her only career start - by 6 3/4 lengths in a 6 1/2 length race at Del Mar November 12. War Heroine looked good in her only action to date and will try to keep the momentum going from gate 4 Saturday. Flavien Prat rides.

Yesterday's News

She makes her graded stakes debut Saturday off a second in an Allowance Optional Claiming at Del Mar November 5, a sixth in the listed Surfer Girl October 9 and a 1 1/2 length maiden score at Del Mar September 2.
