Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (SEDAMAR) (3-1) - Very consistent 4yo has gone 9-3-2-4 on the grass and enters off a win at Del Mar going 8.5 furlongs Nov. 16 while facing optional-$80K claimers/N1X foes. Nicely spotted today, and I give her a slight edge.
2nd pick: #5 (Sold It) (2-1) - Grey filly drops in class following a 4th place finish here in the Lady Shamrock Stakes Dec. 28. Lightly raced Reddam home bred was racing off a 4.5-month layoff and is a win candidate in this spot.
3rd pick: #3 (Wicked Old Fashion) (7-2) - Veteran mare has as many wins (11) as the rest of the field combined. This 6yo is 10 of 18 on the grass, fits on figures, has a flexible style, and must be left in the mix.
