While the two O'Neill-trained horses have enjoyed success in turf sprints, miler True Valour shortens up a bit after a 2019 season that saw the son of Kodiac claim hard-fought victories in the Thunder Road Stakes (G3T) and City of Hope Mile Stakes (G2T), both on the grass at Santa Anita. Two starts ago, he won the Nevada State Bank Franklin-Simpson Stakes (G3T) at Kentucky Downs and placed in the 2019 Desert Code Stakes at five furlongs on the Santa Anita lawn. The son of Scat Daddy finished last of 12 in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1T) at five furlongs on the Santa Anita turf, but appears to fit here. O'Neill will also send out Legends of War, who like Blitzkrieg enters off an off-the-board finish in grade 1 competition.

Blitzkrieg weakened after an early inside duel with grade 1 winner Gift Box and finished seventh, beaten more than 22 lengths by eventual Longines Breeders' Cup Classic (G1) winner Vino Rosso. O'Neill then took a shot with Blitzkrieg in the May 27 Gold Cup at Santa Anita Stakes (G1) but either the surface switch or class level didn't fit.
