A bay filly born on February 15, SUSIE Q is by Storm Craft and out of Dee-Q. Trained by Anthony Smith, she will embark on her racing career with Evertte Clunis in the saddle. As a first-time starter, SUSIE Q is poised to benefit from the valuable experience of competition.
5 - LINGUIST
This bay filly, by Aveenu Malcainu out of Bilingual, was born on February 5. Training under Anthony Nunes, LINGUIST has two close second-place finishes out of four starts, indicating her consistent form. With her mounting experience, she seems ready to finally secure her first victory, making her a formidable contender in this race.
6 - NATIVE FLYER
NATIVE FLYER, a bay filly born on March 25, is the offspring of Successful Native and Polly Flyer. She is trained by Steven Todd with Phillip Parchment as her rider. Although she is making strides in her development, showing gradual improvement, there remains considerable room for growth.

Under the tutelage of trainer Michael Marlowe and ridden by Richie Shakes, she will race with a visor on and the tongue tie off. Despite a rough start to her career, her past performances suggest she may struggle to be competitive in this outing.
