Just F Y I (Justify), champion 2-year-old filly of 2023, kicks off her 4-year-old campaign in this stakes-quality field. The GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies winner and GI Kentucky Oaks runner-up was last seen finishing a well-beaten sixth in the GI Acorn S. at Saratoga June 7.
“We need to get started,” Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott said. “She's been away a long time and we decided to try an allowance race, although it's a very tough allowance race. It could be a stake, really.”
The field of six also includes GII George E. Mitchell Black-Eyed Susan S. winner Gun Song (Gun Runner), narrow runner-up to Horse of the Year Thorpedo Anna (Fast Anna) in last fall's GI Cotillion S. at Parx.
Trainer Jorge Delgado said that the rail-drawn 2024 GI Alabama S. winner Power Squeeze (Union Rags) would be scratched.
