The $150,000 Schuylerville Stakes features six promising 2-year-old fillies racing six furlongs, with notable entries from leading sires Vekoma, Omaha Beach, and Yaupon. Among the contenders, Evolution and My Sweetheart stand out as the only winners in the field, with Evolution showing improved speed ratings and experience, while My Sweetheart impresses with a strong turf debut and promising workouts transitioning to dirt. Other fillies like Kingsolver, Bay Yaupon, Miss Magical, and Simone have potential but are less proven, with some still maiden and others making their debut.
Analysts Laurie and Ashley both favor Evolution and My Sweetheart, highlighting their speed and pedigree as key factors. Laurie notes the historical trend favoring fillies with prior wins and suggests My Sweetheart’s progression and breeding make her a strong contender, while Ashley expresses skepticism about the overall field quality but agrees on Evolution and My Sweetheart as top picks. The race is expected to be competitive with early speed from Evolution, My Sweetheart, and Kingsolver, and both experts include Simone and Miss Magical as possible exotic bets.
