5th-Fair Grounds, $50k, Msw, 3yo, f, a1mT, post time: 1:54 pm ET

A pair of high-profile fillies make their respective debuts in this race on the GII Louisiana Derby undercard. Stonestreet Stables and LNJ Foxwoods’s GOLD STANDARD (Medaglia d’Oro) co-topped last year’s Fasig-Tipton Gulfstream Sale at $1.2 million. A $200,000 KEESEP yearling, she breezed in a powerful :10 flat before eventually being turned over to conditioner Brad Cox. Her stakes-placed dam is out of a stakes-winning full-sister to GISW Majestic Warrior (A.P. Indy), meaning her third dam is MGISW Dream Supreme (Seeking the Gold). Gold Standard earned the co-quickest four-furlong breeze time of :47.40 at Fair Grounds Mar. 17. That clocking matches up with fellow Cox trainee Break Even (Country Day), who has won both of her starts by open lengths.

Also set to be unveiled here is Godolphin homebred Meghan (Tapit). The Mike Stidham pupil is out of Tizaqueena (Tiznow), a speedy graded winner for these connections going two turns on both turf and synthetic. She was a close second in the 2009 GI First Lady S. at Keeneland. TJCIS PPs
