1. Seek And Destroy

6yo stallion from Bristol Turks, Career earnings: $2,863,557
Overall rating: Grand(67) – Stalker

Comments: Seek And Destroy a 2 time World Cup winner out of Bristol Turks Stables has been a little off his game in his last 5 races. Can the 6yo Stalker find that winning form again?

2. American Pharoah

6yo mare from Happy Skipper Stable, Career earnings: $1,665,740
Overall rating: Grand(69) – Competitive

Comments: American Pharoah, yes we know the name of the real horse, but this American Pharoah on TK can race also. A competitive mare who always seem to be somewhere in the mix. Owner Happyskipper would love to get that first world cup win.

3. Secret Infraction

6yo mare from Dixon Racing, Career earnings: $2,432,374
Overall rating: Tremendous(70) – Competitive

Comments: A stable on the rise, Dixon Racing has Secret Infraction going for the star. While the horse is still trying to figure out how to get in the winner circle, he still poises as a threat.

4. Addie Over Doneill

6yo mare from crowsrock, Career earnings: $1,754,500
Overall rating: Grand(66) – Early sprinter

Comments: Addie Over Doneill, another early sprinter in the race has some good times under her belt but never really found that winning touch. 

5. Blue Cretheus

6yo stallion from captaincrusoe, Career earnings: $2,271,775
Overall rating: Tremendous(70) – Early sprinter

Comments: After winning the Golden Slipper as a 2yo, Blue Cretheus has not had great success much after. But the early sprinter has all the tools to go wire to wire if others lose sight.

6. Nihilator

6yo stallion from Happy Skipper Stable, Career earnings: $2,365,001
Overall rating: Grand(69) – Fast finisher

Comments: Nihilator a fast finisher seems to be rounding into form at the right time. Last weekend heat win was impressive and will be looking to duplicate that winning performance.

7. Just A Dream

6yo mare from Allison Racing, Career earnings: $948,700
Overall rating: Tremendous(71) – Fast finisher

Comments: Just A Dream, from Allison Racing got the name, got the looks, got the stats, but after 13 career starts never won a race. Will shock the world if her first victory is the Up & Coming Sprintstar Cup.

8. Falselycrownedking

6yo stallion from Team Monkfish, Career earnings: $759,578
Overall rating: Grand(69) – Competitive

Comments: Team Monkfish enter the race with Falselycrownedking, another maiden who has had 10 career starts and a big fat null.

9. Jacqueline

6yo mare from Manor Park Stud, Career earnings: $1,086,000
Overall rating: Tremendous(72) – Competitive

Comments: The rich just keep getting richer. Manor Park may have found a gem in the 6yo mare Jacqueline for a whopping 15 million dollars. But if she can repeat her heat race and grab the Sprintstar, it will be all worth it and beyond.

10. Betty Boop

6yo mare from Magoo’s Fine Equine, Career earnings: $2,547,480
Overall rating: Grand(68) – Breakaway

Comments: Betty Boop out of the Magoo’s Fine Equine barn ran her fastest time in her career last week, but that was only good for 5th place. The breakaway mare will have to find another gear to get in the money this weekend.

11. Allwrong Bowler

6yo stallion from ghanainternational, Career earnings: $3,354,493
Overall rating: Tremendous(70) – Competitive

Comments: Allwrong Bowler a 2 time world cup champion might be all right when its all said and done. His last 7 races has been right on the mark and he will be one to keep and eye on.

12. Fall Line

6yo stallion from skifam21, Career earnings: $2,538,536
Overall rating: Tremendous(73) – Competitive

Comments: Fall Line has the OR and potential but haven’t seem to figure it all out. A strong 2nd in last weekend heat and will be looking to improve off that race.

13. Songline

6yo stallion from DPK Stables, Career earnings: $783,168
Overall rating: Grand(66) – Early sprinter

Comments: Songline was just purchased in March 2016 for 4.5 million. The early sprinter might be in a little to deep against this stronger competition.
