2017 Pegasus Stakes Entries at Monmouth Park

Timeline 1-5

Impressive Chad Brown trained colt has three career starts and three nice wins. Last time out was in his graded stakes debut - the G3 Peter Pan Stakes at Belmont Park May 13 after good wins in an Allowance Optional Claiming April 6 and a maiden score at Gulfstream March 4. Timeline hasn't been touched so far and hopes to keep an impressive roll going from gate 2 Saturday. Javier Castellano rides the overwhelming race favorite.

Talk Logistics 4-1

He enters off a second in an Allowance Optional Claiming on this track May 13 after a sixth in the G1 Florida Derby at Gulfstream April 1 and consecutive fourths - beaten by a combined 26 1/2 lengths in those races - in the G2 Fountain of Youth Stakes March 4 and in the G2 Holy Bull Stakes February 4 - both at Gulfstream. Before that was a third in the minor Mucho Macho Man Stakes January 7, a second in the minor Buffalo Man Stakes December 10 and a maiden score at first asking - at Parx in July.

Honor the Fleet 9-2

Louis Albertrani trained colt has two wins and a second-place finish in his four career starts.

Greek Prince 30-1

Georgia D. Andreadakis trained gelding has two wins and a third-place finish in seven career starts.
