The 11th horse is Fire On Ice. Had the look of a promising horse when he won his debut big at Saratoga first-time out for John Kimmel. This son of Unbridled's Song unfortunately got hurt training for the Champagne and has not started again.

Fire on Ice is back in the first race on Thursday at Belmont.
