Top pick: #5 (CEDAR ISLAND) - Filly showed fine early sped before finishing a distant second to the impressive Willet (who's won three in a row now). Home-bred by "Five Star Day" is training nicely for her first race since late Sep at Belmont, and trainer Jeremiah Englehart will add lasix today. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #6 (My Girl Gracie) - The probable favorite finished second after setting the pace at this level on the main-track here in late November. Working fine, Dominguez is back on the re-ride, and she'd be no surprise.
3rd pick: #1a (Karakorum Magic) - She's part of a three-horse entry and is the only one of the trio to have started. She showed godd early speed in her debut before tiring and is brough back in three weeks with lasix added.
