Monmouth Park Race 5 - Philip H. Iselin S. Stakes
BISHOPS BAY (5) finished second over 1609m in the G3 Salvator Mile Stakes at this track (Dirt) at his last run on June 13. Has a strong record when fresh, claiming four wins from seven runs and was in the money in his last first up run, expected to go well. STARS AND STRIPES (4) broke through for a win last start when second up from a spell, scoring by 0.1 lengths over 2816m in stakes class at Saratoga (Dirt). Unbeaten in two starts at the third run in so he is among the winning hopes. CHUNK OF GOLD (2) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second when resuming last time out over 1710m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. EAST AVENUE (1) returns after a spell of nine weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1609m at Oaklawn Park. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.

Entire returning from a spell and has won previously when first up. Finished off last preparation second in a small field at this track in the G3 Salvator Mile Stakes June 13 over 1609m, a 0.1 lengths behind East Avenue carrying 53.5kg at $1.80. First up last campaign second in a small field at Aqueduct in the G3 Westchester Stakes May 3 over 1609m, 6 len behind Antiquarian with 56kg at $1.79. Could prove too smart for these.
