8 Tapidor(L) 120 Davis 1-7-4 McMahon 12-1

13 Smooth Navigator(L) 119 Falk 8-x-x Falk 20-1
14 Watergate(L) 119 Franco 6-8-3 Weaver 7-2
Green entry: Mark My Style should pack amplified kick with cutback to 6 furlongs and mate Black Friday Rush should improve with addition of blinkers.

Boldlee fired 3-furlong bullet on Wednesday; don't ignore.
