Miguel Clement's rail-drawn Make Haste (GB) (Blue Point {Ire}), a gate to wire winner in her last race (an allowance at Gulfstream), will look to take this field in similar fashion for Friday's GIII Coronation Cup at Saratoga. A debut winner and stakes-placed in her native Ireland, this filly has never gone further than five furlongs and will have to pick up the extra half-furlong Friday but showed no signs of stopping at Gulfstream for the late Christophe Clement, hitting the wire going away by nearly five lengths.

Lugamo Racing Stable's Cloe (Tiz the Law) already has a stakes win to her credit, taking the Melody of Colors (also at Gulfstream in gate to wire fashion) in late March. This well-traveled filly went from Florida to Santa Anita when third in the GIII Senorita Stakes Apr. 27 to Saratoga when most recently second in a rained-off edition of the Soaring Softly Stakes June 8. She'll look to challenge the front for trainer Jose D'Angelo.

Cutting back in distance is Spirited Boss (Street Boss) who came from off the pace to win the 7 1/2 furlong Sanibel Island Stakes Mar. 29 before running second in the one-mile Honey Ryder Stakes and third (behind Cloe) in the Soaring Softly.

Already a winner over course and distance is Abientot (Not This Time), a Mark Casse runner who also took the GIII Matron Stakes in her juvenile season but struggled last out in the GIII Mamzelle Stakes finishing ninth. She did kick off this season with a third beaten just a length in the 5 1/2 furlongs Limestone Stakes at Keeneland in April.

Brittany Russell brings in Gata Brazil (Into Mischief) who has ruled the turf at Laurel Park but now steps up markedly in class. She last took the Stormy Blue Stakes going this same 5 1/2-furlong distance June 15.
