Top pick: #4 (SACRISTY) - Lightly raced, talented, and still improving, this $125,000 daughter of "Pulpit" was an impressive maiden winner at Churchill Downs on Nov 10. She's in a very good barn (Wayne Catalano), is working very fast locally, and stalker will get a fast pace to rally into.
2nd pick: #8 (Quick Flip) - Undefeated (3 for 3) filly takes on tougher after winning a 6 furlong stakes at Tampa Bay Downs on Dec 10th. Speed/stalker had worked sharply here before that win and her trainer (Terry Pompay) really made a name for herself last year.
3rd pick: #6 (Awesome Belle) - She's working fast for this after a wide effort from a tough outside post (14th of 14)at Churchill on day one of last year's Breeder's Cup. She has stalking ability and the pace here should be on the quick side. Stretch threat.
