Top pick: #7 (PLEASE NO EMAILS) (2-1) - Lightly-raced filly has the best early speed of this sub-par gathering and is working nicely for her first since Nov. 15. Daughter of "E Dubai" should be able to take this field from gate-to-wire.
2nd pick: #5 (Red Constitution) (5-2) - Dangerous rival enters off a third-place finish here at this tag on Dec. 12. She was a bit "rank" that day, but Cornelio Velasquez got to know her that day and it's nice to see him back on the re-ride.
3rd pick: #3 (Fancy 'n Flight) (12-1) - Longshot stretches back out off a pair of even efforts sprinting and trainer Bruce Brown appears to be racing her into shape. Price play in the same race exotic bets.
4th pick: #1 (Charming Eyes) (5-1) - Filly has been competitive in two straight sprints and will be attempting a two-turn distance for the first time. She has the rail and is capable of grabbing a minor award.
