2014 Sabin Stakes Race Favorite Entries

Sweet N Discreet - Todd Pletcher entry (Pletcher has won this race 10 straight years) has looked very good as of late - three wins and two seconds in her last five starts.

She has four wins, three seconds and two third place finishes in her 11 career starts and is an interesting ahead of her graded stakes debut. Joe Bravo gets the mount Sunday in Sweet N Discreet's latest challenge against...

Devil's Cave - has hit the board in seven of nine starts - three wins and four seconds for trainer Martin Wolfson and has placed in all four races since switching from turf to dirt.

Kipling's Joy - Martin Wolfson pupil steps up into graded stakes company for the first time but is coming off an Allowance Optional Claiming score on this track January 25 after a pair of fourths in Allowance races to end her 2013 campaign. She has three wins, a second and three third place finishes in 14 career starts and figures to have a tough time in her first foray against stakes competitors.

Rose to Gold - won three of four graded stakes starts between November 2012 and April 2013 including the Grade 3 Fantasy Stakes April 10, the Grade 3 Honeybee Stakes March 9 and the Grade 3 Delta Downs Princess Stakes in November 2011 but she hasn't been the same since. Rose to Gold is coming off a terrific win however - in the Houston Ladies Classic at Sam Houston January 25 after a disappointing ninth in the Grade 3 Marshua's River Stakes at Gulfstream January 4, a fifth in the Grade 3 My Charmer Handicap December 7 and seven months away. Before being sidelined Rose to Gold was eighth in the Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks in May. She hadn't been great but last time out has created a little optimism that Rose to Gold has regained her early 2013 form.

Angelica Zapata - most recently finished a good third in the Grade 3 Marshua's River Stakes January 4 after a second in the Grade 3 My Charmer Handicap at Calder December 7 and three straight minor stakes scores - the Capano Handicap November 2, the Wasted Tears Stakes on this track in August and the Nancy's Glitter Handicap in July at Calder. She has 26 career starts with nine wins, five seconds and four third place finishes and enters in the best form of her career.

Triple Arch - is one of many in the Sabin that will race in graded stakes company for the first time Sunday. She is coming off a second ahead of Gamay Noir in an Allowance on this track January 29 after a fourth in the minor Voodoo Dancer Stakes on this track January 1 and an Allowance Optional Claiming score here December 8. She did have a career best December 12 at Calder - a second in the minor Frances A. Genter Stakes and has been OK since. She takes a giant leap up in competition Sunday.
