2nd-CD, $66K, Msw, 3yo/up, f/m, 1mT, post time: 10:58 a.m. ET
Amerman Racing Stables’ homebred EMMY PERFORMANCE (Point of Entry) has been pegged at morning-line odds of 15-1 owing to her double-digit draw, but she’s certainly blessed with the pedigree to overcome that obstacle. The chestnut daughter of SW Devine Actress (Theatrical {Ire}) is a half-sister to last year’s GI Belmont Derby and GI Secretariat S. hero Oscar Performance (Kitten’s Joy) and that one’s millionaire MGSW full-brother Oscar Nominated. Juddmonte’s twice-placed Pachinko (Tapit), a half-sister to French G1 winner Announce (GB) (Selkirk), is repatriated for her U.S. debut for trainer Brad Cox. The gray was previously conditioned by Andre Fabre. TJCIS PPs

St Elias Stable and West Point Thoroughbreds combined forces to acquire BUGLE NOTES (Ghostzapper) for $825K at KEESEP in 2016, the most expensive of 38 yearlings be his sire to sell at public auction. The bay, a half-brother to SW Giant Payday (Giant’s Causeway) and GSW Annual Report (Harlan’s Holiday) is out of a daughter of GISW Furlough (Easy Goer), the dam of GSW Happy Hunting (Seeking the Gold) and SW Pardon (Elusive Quality). The third dam includes Furlough’s Grade I-winning half-sister Finder’s Fee (Storm Cat) and GI Breeders’ Cup Sprint hero Dancing Spree (Ninjinsky II). TJCIS PPs

6th-BEL, $75K, Msw, 3yo/up, f/m, 1m, post time: 4:14 p.m. ET
On this Kentucky Derby weekend, it seems only appropriate that GOLDEN AWARD (Medaglia d’Oro) is entered for her career debut. A homebred for Harvey Clarke, the May 22 foal is a daughter of Arch’s Gal Edith (Arch), the dam of champion and 2012 GI Kentucky Derby and GI Preakness S. hero I’ll Have Another (Flower Alley). The mare was bought back on a bid of $950K out of the 2012 FTKNOV sale and her most recent produce is a filly from the first crop of Triple Crown hero American Pharoah. TJCIS PPs

9th-SA, $54K, Msw, 3yo, f, 1mT, post time: 7:45 p.m. ET
FASHION BRAND (Medaglia d’Oro) is an Andrew Rosen homebred daughter of the talented Theyskens’ Theory (Bernardini), a Group 3 winner and Group 1-placed in Europe and runner-up, beaten a neck by Winter Memories (El Prado {Ire}), in the 2011 GI Garden City S. Theyskens’ Theory is a half-sister to Eclipse Award winner Stevie Wonderboy (Stephen Got Even). TJCIS PPs
