COMMENTS: NEST is by far the class of the field here. FIRST TO ACT hit the board in each of her five career starts and increased her speed figure in all of them. THE GRASS IS BLUE could be a live longshot who has some late burst at times. TRAVEL COLUMN has been working bullets getting ready for today.

COMMENTS: L IMPERATOR should be in peak form in his third start after a layoff. PIXELATE has some of the best late numbers in this group and has some swift works getting prepped. LONESOME FUGITIVE has a win and second in two at Aqueduct. PUBLIC SECTOR hit the board in 13 of 15 on turf.
