American Butterfly tries the grass for the first time off a scintillating win on dirt by seven and one-half lengths on 8/1. As a son of champion American Pharoah, he’s bred to run as well on grass and his 99 last race Equibase Speed Figure (a numerical representation of time which helps us compare horses from different tracks) is the best last race figure in the field so he’s the one to beat.
