2. Nova Sol
3. Fashion Faux Pas

Comment: Top turf trainer’s numbers off layoffs say this one must be respected, and, if not the one, then go with the stablemate.
Race 10 | Grade III Pimlico Special Stakes | 1 1/4 miles
1. Tenfold
2. You’re to Blame
3. Bobby G
4. Flamaway
Comment: Tenfold has won at a higher level. (Part of the charm of the race was being run at the quirky Preakness Stakes distance. Last year’s comment: Looking at this signature race in the history of thoroughbred racing makes you sick when you see what it’s become, but at least The Stronach Group hasn’t given up on it.)
Race 11 | Grade II Black-Eyed Susan Stakes | 1 1/8 miles
1. Brill
2. Cookie Dough
3. Always Shopping

1. Tricks to Doo
2. Completed Pass
3. American Sailor
4. Oldies But Goodies
