With the entry box for the 2016 Pepsi North America Cup eliminations closing in eight days, the eligible three-year-old pacers continue to prepare and impress on the road to Canadian harness racing's biggest prize.

For the past several years, Trot Magazine's Pepsi North America Cup Spring Book has served as an initial barometer for the colts and geldings that may be in the running for the sophomore pacing set's single biggest payday.

This year's edition of the $1 million Pepsi North America Cup will be contested on Saturday, June 18 at Mohawk Racetrack in Campbellville, Ontario.

Listed by the Spring Book odds as featured in the April 2016 edition of Trot Magazine, here are the horses that are still Cup-eligible as of the April 15 sustaining payment and have raced or are in-to-go as of May 30, 2016.

Look for a number of colts to be in action this Saturday. Mohawk Racetrack will card divisions of the Somebeachsomewhere Stakes, while The Meadows hosts the sophomores for divisions of the Pennsylvania Sire Stakes.
