COMMENTS: DOUBLE CLUTCH has been in the trifecta in all three of his career races with better speed numbers each time. CELESTIAL CITY keeps getting better and gets the hot Javier Castellano in the irons. READY TO PURRFORM always shows up as he has had only one bad race. WIT displayed his talent on the dirt now will try to take it to the turf for the first time.
