Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (ANNETTE'S HUMOR) (2-1) - Speedy filly tired late to finish third of 10, beaten 2 lengths here facing tougher going 6 furlongs. She drops down in class, shortens up a 1/2 furlong, has the rail, and is from the hottest barn on the grounds (Rudy Rodriguez).
2nd pick: #3 (Call it a Truce) (7-2) - This filly was scratched the other day to await this spot. Competitive in two of three so far, home bred has had solid excuses in each. A major player in this spot.
3rd pick: #4 (Rose of Dublin) (5-1) - Freshened up since Nov. 16, she tired while wide that day facing tougher in her first off a Jim Ryerson claim. Back down to the claimed level ($30,000) stalker must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #6 (Big Brown Cat) (5-1) - She tired to finish third at this level Nov. 11 in a race run in slow time. Home bred has some speed, but needs to do better for anything more than a minor award.
