(# 8) NEW YORK DIXIE - She has spent her entire career racing against "open" company maidens. Has speed figures that tower over these and she gets to face fellow New York breds today for the first time. Draws well for the flat mile on the grass, but she doesn't bring much speed to the race. Will need to rally to win.

(# 6) One in a Romp - Jerkens trained filly enjoyed her first turf race, as it resulted in her best figure ever. Continues to train well and made a threatening move in last without being able to sustain it late. Very dangerous today.

(# 1) Cherna - Comes back quickly for the crafty Dickinson after a dirt race at Monmouth on May 19. Johnny V. takes the reins and this race may have been the connections intended target all along.

(# 5) Papa's Kara - Training well for her return after a three-month freshening. She was well bet in the last 3 of 4 before the vacation. She's working extremely fast for her return to action.
