2013 Vangrancy Handicap Race Favorites

Spectacular Sky - had a three race win streak in the summer at Calder including the minor Barb`s Dancer Stakes and the Whippleton Stakes and looked very good before a disappointing sixth in the Grade 2 Chilukki Stakes at Churchill Downs November 3. She bounced back with a win in the minor Manatee Stakes by a head at Tampa Bay Downs February 9 and was second last time out in the Grade 2 Inside Information Stakes March 17 at Gulfstream behind Aubby K who went on to win the Grade 1 Humana Distaff. She has won four of her last six starts and outside of the Chilukki has been competitive in every race the last eight months. She will be looking for her first graded stakes score Saturday.

Fantasy of Flight - Richard Dutrow filly had a very nice 9 3/4 length win in an Optional Claiming race in October after a less-than-impressive ninth in the Grade 1 Humana Distaff at Churchill Downs way back in May. She was a pedestrian fifth in the Grade 2 Go for Wand Handicap at Aqueduct November 23 and followed that with a second in an Allowance Optional Claiming race at Gulfstream January 12 and a good second in the Grade 3 Hurricane Bertie Stakes at Gulfstream February 10 for her most impressive career result. Last time out was an ugly eighth in the Grade 1 Madison Stakes at Keeneland April 13 however.
