I think she (it is a filly by the way) has a very big chance.
The recent wet weather should favor her if she flashes that same early speed, and given her dam-side pedigree, the switch to poly could move her up.
I don't like the ML favorite (the Frank Brothers filly) in this race at all. Given her past performances, she just doesn't seem like a polytracker.

The three horses that I see as the biggest contenders are:
#8 Dark Sky - Dallas Stewart (7/2)
#5 Saratoga Summer - Bill Mott (9/2)
#2 E Major - Chuck Simon (8/1)
