Jonesin for Jerry - John Robb trained filly finished second in a Maiden Claiming in her career debut at Pimlico in May but followed that with a nice gate-to-wire MSW score last time out at Delaware Park June 29. She is another of the well matched field that could emerge victorious Friday.

Bahnah - Bret Calhoun trained filly will take to the track for her second career start Friday after a 4 1/2 furlong MSW score by 4 1/2 lengths in her debut at Churchill Downs June 6.

Brazen Persuasion - Steve Asmussen trained filly has two career starts - a second in her debut and a six furlong MSW score by 4 3/4 lengths last time out June 29 at Churchill Downs. She is the most expensive purchase in the field - a lot is expected!

True Blue Nation - Thomas Albertini pupil has just one career start but it was a good one - a five furlong MSW score by 5 1/4 lengths at 17-1 odds at Belmont Park June 21. Her trainer has high hopes for this filly - Friday will go a long way in telling if Albertini is on to something.

Silver Valley - Ron Moquett trained filly has two career starts. After breaking maiden May 25 at Lone Star, she made her stakes debut June 22 and finished fourth in the minor six furlong Debutante Stakes at Churchill Downs. She is the lone contender with stakes experience but is the only filly not coming off a win.
