Trainer Tony Cunningham will send out four qualifiers to Saturday's 350-yard, $134,700 Jaguar Rocket Futurity (R) for Indiana-breds, led by the undefeated Macho Chick.

A chestnut daughter of the Apollitical Jess stallion KJ Mucho Macho Man owned by Brian L. Gunder, Macho Chick has won both of her outs and has banked $18,150. The filly is the third-fastest qualifier from four trials run on June 27.

Macho Chick drew post 8 and will be ridden by Luz D. Martinez.

Eleven state-bred sophomores are entered in Saturday's 400-yard, $133,900 Blue River Derby (R).
