Notes:
9/5 morning line choice Uncaptured opened as AllHorseRacing s Kentucky Derby future book favorite last August, and displayed an affinity for the Churchill Downs surface in the top 2012 juvenile performance to date when running away with the Iroquois S. last month. Positively was best of the rest that day and outworked Florida Derby champ and Friday s Clark H. entrant Take Charge Indy on 11/18. Frac Daddy s maiden-breaker was jaw-dropping, and the Ken McPeek trainee enters with a best of 51 bullet here. Tesseron and Indiano Jones exit a 2-3 finish in the Grey S. ahead of Uncaptured. Dewey Square dusted a suspect group at HOO before easily beating winners here and shares the 11/17 bullet with Frac Daddy. Track Rocker stretched out and blew away his rivals at DEL and might be overlooked by the public. Joha makes his dirt debut after a troubled run in the Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf. Java s War also switches to dirt off a 3 rd behind Joha at KEE. Lew And Mike and Fear the Kitten enter off allowance victories. Will Take Charge is a half brother to Take Charge Indy. TDN restricted stakes winner Silver Tongued would be a surprise.
