Fashion Alert - highly regarded Todd Pletcher trained filly has three career starts and two wins but is coming off by far her worst career outing - a sixth in the Grade 1 Darley Alcibiades Stakes at Keeneland October 3. She won her debut - the Astoria Stakes by 4 3/4 lengths at Belmont Park June 14 and followed that with a terrific win as 1-5 favorite in the Grade 3 Schuylerville Stakes by 1 1/2 lengths at Saratoga July 18. She will be looking for a strong bounce back Saturday when she leaves from the rail with John Velazquez in the saddle.

Ekati's Phaeton - William Kaplan trainee is coming of a close second in the minor House Party Stakes at Gulfstream Park West November 29, a sixth in the minor Our Dear Peggy Stakes on grass in October and consecutive wins - a MSW and an incredible 10 1/4 length Allowance score with a terrific 90 Beyer Speed Figure on this track this past summer. She steps into graded stakes company for the first time Saturday looking to rediscover her early-career form on a Gulfstream dirt track she's never been touched on. Ekati's Phaeton has looked very good in preparation and will have Luis Saez will be in the irons from post 7.
