The $75,000 Monroe Stakes, Gulfstream's 10th and feature race for Saturday, has been moved to one mile on the dirt track that is listed as Fast.
The Monroe had been scheduled for 1 1/16 miles on turf. It is for fillies and mares 3-YO and up. Scheduled post is 5:19 p.m.
Scratches due to the surface change have left the Monroe with just seven starters.
They are (with post positions): Thisismytime (4), Starship Nterprise (7), Mo of the West (8), Key Biscayne (10), Global Brand (11), Heiressindy (13) and Elusive Molly (14).
Thisismytime, Heiressindy and Elusive Molly were entered as Main Track Only, and all should be considered for the exacta. Past Performances indicate that Thisismytime, wth Luca Panici riding for Kathleen O'Connell, could attempt to take the field gate to wire,
Key Biscayne has won both of her dirt starts, one taken off turf at Belmont Park and one taken off turf at Gulfstream and also should be considered for the exacta.
