Ami's Holiday - Josie Carroll trained colt broke maiden at first asking and recorded a great win the Grade 3 Grey Stakes at Woodbine October 6. He went on to a disappointing seventh after being DQ's as favorite in the Coronation Stakes November 17 and an OK third in the Display Stakes December 8. Ami's Holiday raced all three legs of Canada's Triple Crown and placed in all - a win last time out in the Breeders' Stakes here August 17 followed a third in the Prince of Wales Stakes July 29 and a good behind Lexie Lou second in the Queens's Plate July 6. Before that was a fourth to Mr Speaker in the Grade 3 Lexington Stakes at Keeneland in April. Ami's Holiday has certainly been trending upward and is expected to be competitive this weekend. Luis Contreras has the return call from post 7.

Coltimus Prime - three-time stakes-placed colt is coming off a nice win over Ami's Holiday in the minor Prince of Wales Stakes at Fort Erie July 29 after a somewhat disappointing ninth in the Queen's Plate and an Allowance score on this track in June. He raced to a disappointing ninth in the Grade 2 Tampa Bay Derby March 8 and a fifth in the Grade 1 Blue Grass Stakes in April but has looked much better since - two wins and a second in his last four starts overall. Coltimus Prime looks to be in decent form ahead of this weekend and will have Eurico Rosa Da Silva in the reins from gate 2 in his latest try against rival Ami's Holiday.
