Comment: Midnight Bisou, the queen of the west coast arrives at Churchill Downs for her coronation. She can win close to the pace or from off of it and has a post that should not be an issue. The main threat to steal the crown is Monomoy Girl, who drew the outside post position — the widest starting post of her career. It’s likely too much for her. While Monomoy Girl has front-running speed, she’ll likely have to do more to get that lead, which very well may cost her. Coach Rocks looks great in training at Churchill, like she wants to do much more. Winning is not impossible, but the top two may be a step above. My Miss Lilly appears to be on the improve and should be a factor.
