Find Out Why A gray mare and a bay mare in the lineup look to have better-than-average chances to pull off the score in the mile and 3/8 marathon, and they would be LNJ Foxwood’s Tapwater (she’s the gray) and Alpha Delta Stables’ Rideforthecause (she’s the bay).Both are 5-year-olds who have run long before and both have good grass credentials.Morning line oddsmaker Jon White has hung Rideforthecause as the slight 5/2 favorite in the feature, while Tapwater and Madaket Stables, De Seroux, or Naify’s Neige Blanche are co-second choices at 3/1.Tapwater is a daughter of the high-line stallion Tapit and has won a trio of races on the green while earning $177,080. She comes out of the barn of Hall of Fame trainer Richard Mandella and will be handled by turf riding ace Umberto Rispoli.Rideforthecause, by Candy Ride, has won 5 races and more than $360,000. All 5 of her tallies have come on turf and she comes off a grass route score in the Possibly Perfect Stakes at Santa Anita on June 13. She’s conditioned by Mike McCarthy and he’s signed on Mario Gutierrez to do the horsebacking.
