ANOTHER EGG DROPS
1st-GP, $43K, Msw, 3yo, f, (S), 1m, post time: 1:10 p.m. ET
The lone firster in this field also sports a power-packed pedigree. The Jonathan Thomas conditioned HOT N SOUR (Tapit&hid=28277">Tapit) is out of stellar racemare Egg Drop (Alphabet Soup), whose parade through California stakes in late 2013 included wins in the GI Matriarch S., GII Yellow Ribbon H., and GII Goldikova S. She sold a year later at the 2014 KEENOV sale for $1.9 million while carrying her first foal by Tapit and produced Hot N Sour a year after for Florida's Bridlewood Farm. TJCIS PPs

FULL TO AVERY ISLAND DEBUTS
4th-AQU, $68K, Msw, 3yo, 7f, post time: 3:15 p.m. ET
Godolphin homebred and Kiaran McLaughlin trainee SPICE ROAD (Street Sense) is a full-brother to multiple graded stakes winner Avery Island, who annexed the 2017 GII Nashua S. and the 2018 GIII Withers S. at this very track for the same connections. Dam Kinda Spicy (A.P. Indy) was undefeated in two career starts and her dam, Isola Piu Bella (Chi) (Rich Man's Gold), was the 2004 Chilean Horse of the Year after four G1 victories in her native country. TJCIS PPs
