(# 5) MERRIWEATHER JESSICA - Trainer Michael McDonald has had a rough go of it in his first year at this historic meeting. South-Florida regular has failed to hit the board with eight starters to date. He's certainly better than his record, and this filly by Freud has a sharp gate work on August 15.

(# 2) Jet Setting - Barn (Asmussen) is superb both with young horses and firsters of any age. $425,000 daughter of Forestry attracts Prado and debuts with Lasix. Works are steady, though not real fast.

(# 7) Golden Spirits - Another firster, this one by the recently deceased Hennessy. She's been in training for a long time, so she should be fit. Works on May 28t and August 20, both at Belmont, indicate some talent.

(#'s 6 and 12) Vain Vixen and City of Lights - Would use these two in light exactas with the top two selections.
