Note:   Following his second-place finish in the Fountain of Youth Stakes on Saturday, Second of June was found to have suffered a condylar fracture of the cannon bone, and was to have surgery at Gulfstream Park's clinic on Sunday. Trainer Bill Cesare said, "The fracture's not displaced, and it's not real wide, but it's there. It shouldn't affect him, other than time. He'll be off for three or four months. He probably won't be ready to run until November or December."
