Todd Pletcher will send out Got Lucky as the heavy favorite at odds of 4-5 on the morning line. A four-year-old filly from the final crop of powerhouse stallion A.P.

Last time out, she was sixth in the Ogden Phipps (G1) and will try to return to winning form with jockey Joe Bravo aboard. They are slated to break from the outside post.

Oasis at Midnight looking for first stakes win

Also in the field at morning line odds of 9-2 is Oasis at Midnight for trainer Joe Orseno. A five-year-old daughter of Midnight Lute, the dark bay mare is a four-time winner and will be trying to earn the first stakes victory of her career. She is winless from six starts this year but was second last time out in an optional claiming race. Orlando Bocachica will be aboard and they will break from post six.
