2017 Test Stakes Entries at Saratoga Race Course

American Gal 5-2

Up-and-coming Bob Baffert trained filly has five career starts and three wins, a second and a third-place finish. She was last seen posting a career-best effort - a 4 3/4 length win in the G3 Victory Ride Stakes at Belmont Park July 9 after a quality second behind the impressive Abel Tasman in the G1 Starlet Stakes at Los Alamitos in December, a respectable third as favorite - after a troubled trip in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies November 5, a good 6 1/2 length win in the minor Anakia Stakes at Santa Anita October 23 and a maiden score by 2 1/4 lengths at first asking - at Del Mar August 14. American Gal has been competitive every time out and looks to be in good shape to claim her second straight graded stakes score. Jose Ortiz gets the call on the morning line favorite.

Faypien 3-1

Has four career starts for trainer Bob Baffert with three wins and a third-place finish - all at Santa Anita. She arrives on a terrific three race win streak - the G2 Summertime Oaks last time out June 17, the listed Angels Flight Stakes May 14 and a 4 1/4 length maiden score April 23 after an OK third in her debut March 11. Faypien has been on a serious upward trajectory lately and hopes to keep the roll going Saturday. Rafael Bejarano will be in the saddle of the morning line second choice and 120-pound co-highweight from gate 8 as Faypien shoots for a second straight graded stakes score.

Last time out was a decent second in the G3 Victory Ride Stakes at Belmont Park July 9 which followed an unfortunate DNF in the minor Jersey Girl Stakes on that track June 11 and two good wins - the G3 Miss Preakness Stakes at Pimlico May 19 and the minor Goldfinch Stakes at Prairie Meadows April 29.

Divine Miss Grey 12-1

Danny Gargan trained filly has nine career starts with five wins and a second-place finish. She steps into stakes company for the first time Saturday on a nice three race win streak - an Allowance last time out June 30, a Starter Allowance June 18 and Claiming May 19 - all at Belmont Park.

Tequilita 15-1

Michael Matz trained filly finished seventh in her debut and has placed in six of seven starts since - three wins and three runner-up finishes. She enters off a disappointing seventh in the G1 Kentucky Oaks May 5 after a respectable second behind Salty in the G2 Gulfstream Park Oaks April 1 and a nice three race win streak - the G2 Forward Gal Stakes at this distance at 14-1 odds in her graded stakes debut at Gulfstream February 4, the minor Smart Halo Stakes by a length at Laurel Park November 19 and a maiden score at Keeneland in October in her fourth career start. Tequilita had been good before last time out and will be in search of a bounce back effort Saturday from gate 4. Luis Saez is scheduled to ride the other 120-pound co-highweight.

Chanel's Legacy 15-1

Has placed in eight of 12 career starts for trainer Chad Summers - five wins, two seconds and a third-place finish.

Before that was a disappointing sixth in the G3 Honeybee Stakes at Oaklawn Park March 11 and consecutive wins in minor stakes action at Oaklawn Park to start her year. Outside of one bad outing Chanel's Legacy has been a factor in every start in 2017. She tries to bounce back off an underwhelming effort last time out from post 9 with Joel Rosario in the irons.

Albert Stall Hr. trained filly has three career starts with two wins. She makes her stakes debut Saturday off a front-running 3 3/4 length Allowance Optional Claiming score at Churchill Downs June 22, a fourth in a similar race on that track May 4 and a maiden score at first asking - at Fair Grounds March 23.
