A trio of candidates zipped three furlongs, led by Jasper Great , a 15-1 shot for the TVG Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1), and Marche Lorraine , a 30-1 shot for the Longines Breeders’ Cup Distaff (G1). Both were clocked in :35 3/5. Sumter , a 30-1 also-eligible for the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (G2), was timed in :36 2/5.
