The 2017 BC Juvenile Turf, won by KY Derby hope Mendelssohn, is coming back a super-key race

James Garfield won the G3 Greenham Stakes earlier today at Newbury Racecourse while making his first start since a 10th-place finish in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf. The 2017 BC Juvenile Turf is coming back quite the stacked race, it would appear.

The winner, Mendelssohn, has come back to win the G2 UAE Derby and is one of the better-fancied chances for the Kentucky Derby.

Fourth-place Catholic Boy came back to win the G2 Remsen Stakes last fall.

Sixth-place Masar, following a failed dirt experiment in Dubai, won the G3 Craven Stakes on Thursday at Newmarket - by nine lengths.

Seventh-place My Boy Jack has won the G3 Southwest and the G3 Lexington this spring.

Eighth-place Flameaway beat Catholic Boy in the Sam Davis Stakes, then was second in the Tampa Bay Derby and the G1 Blue Grass.

Ninth-place Sands of Mali returned to win the G3 Sigy Stakes on April 13 at Chantilly.

Twelfth-place Snapper Sinclair returned this year with a third in the G3 Lecomte and missed by a nose in the G2 Risen Star.

Fourteenth-place Hemp Hemp Hurray won the March 31 Animal Kingdom Stakes at Turfway Park by 11 3/4 lengths.

Voting Control, Beckford, Rajasinghe and Encumbered have yet to races since the BC Juvenile Turf. Runner-up Untamed Domain was third in the Dania Beach on Gulfstream turf then sixth in the Tampa Bay Derby.
