Field shaping up for Silverbulletday

While the field of colts and geldings being pointed for the Lecomte

S. (G3) on Fair Grounds' January 22 Road to the Derby Kickoff Day is

still taking shape, the three-year-old fillies being considered for the

$100,000 Silverbulletday S. on that same afternoon is more defined.

This year's newly-named Silverbulletday is now the first leg of the

sophomore filly series and was run last year as the Tiffany Lass. Last

season's Silverbulletday S., the middle leg of that series, has been

renamed the Rachel Alexandra S. (G3) and will be run February 19. The

final leg, the Fair Grounds Oaks (G2), remains with the same name and

will be contested on Louisiana Derby Day, March 26.

Trainer Steve Margolis has two fillies possible for the upcoming

Silverbulletday.

"I have one named LITTLE MISS HOLLY (Maria's Mon) and another named BOUQUET

BOOTH (Flower Alley)," Margolis said on Sunday. "I'm thinking about the

Silverbulletday for both of them."

Little Miss Holly broke her maiden with a six-length win at the New Orleans

venue on December 9 while Bouquet Booth captured her initial win at Keeneland on

October 15 and won the Delta Princess S. (G3) at Delta Downs on November 20.
