BEST LONG-SHOT Bulletin in the Juvenile Sprint Turf

Juvenile Turf Sprint. Purse $1 million, 5½ furlongs, turf, 2-year-olds

BULLETIN dominated stake rivals in a turf-sprint debut at Gulfstream, and his subsequent works have been strong. He receives a positive rider switch. SOLDIER'S CALL has shown excellent early speed in Europe, and the multiple graded stake-winner loves soft ground and is treated with Lasix for the first time. SERGEI PROKOFIEV overcame trouble to defeat graded rivals at Newmarket. The Aidan O'Brien trainee is unbeaten at the distance and is on Lasix for the first time.

NEWSPAPEROFRECORD followed a dominating career debut victory with a 6-length victory in the Grade III Miss Grillo at Belmont, and the Chad Brown trainee loves a soft course. EAST is a beautifully-bred daughter of European superstar Frankel, who is unbeaten in a two-race career. She possesses a powerful late punch and is treated with Lasix for the first time. CONCRETE ROSE is perfect in a two-race career, including a recent graded stake victory at Keeneland. She possesses tactical speed and should benefit from a rail skimming trip.

BELLAFINA has been a clear winner of consecutive Grade I races in California, while consistently earning the field's fastest Beyer figures. RESTLESS RIDER exits a two-turn Grade I win at Keeneland, and she is unbeaten in two races at Churchill, including a sprint-stake victory in June. JAYWALK ran her winning streak to three after an upset win in the Grade I Frizette at Belmont, and she is bred to improve around two turns.

Juvenile Turf. Purse $1 million, 1 mile, turf, colts and geldings, 2-year-olds

LINE OF DUTY has finished no worse than second in a four-race career in Europe, including a troubled graded stake victory in France. His trainer has a strong record shipping to America, and the colt is treated with Lasix. ANTHONY VAN DYCK has finished in-the-money in consecutive Group I races in Europe. He has the best of connections and would be a top selection if not for a difficult post position. UNCLE BENNY won a sprint-stake at Belmont in dramatic last-to-first fashion, and the unbeaten colt is bred to route and drew a favorable inside post.

GAME WINNER is a multiple Grade I winner from the powerful barn of trainer Bob Baffert. The unbeaten colt has earned the field's fastest Beyer figures and figures to work out an ideal trip. COMPLEXITY negotiates two turns for the first time after a debut sprint victory at Saratoga. He is very fast and may never look back. GUNMETAL GRAY was forwardly placed when finishing second behind the top selection in the Grade I American Pharoah, and he is a steadily improving colt.
