Top pick: #4 (RED HOT BABY) - Excellent debut speed shown by this filly at the MSW level on October 18th. Comes back quickly for her 2nd start, drops into a claimer and gets the addition of blinkers. Trainer (John Terranova) is solid 2nd time out (18%).
2nd pick: #7 (Cherry Lady) - This filly has run competitively in her pair of starts, both on the turf against maiden-special foes. Drops into a claimer for trainer Barclay Tagg and gets the addition of blinkers.
3rd pick: #2 (Devilish Ghost) - First time starter has some nice works at Philadelphia Park in preparation for this. Daughter of "Freud" is in a good barn (Tony Dutrow) and draws the rail.
