Top pick: #1a (SIREN SERENADE) - Beautifully-bred filly has finished second in her last pair, both losses to fillies who have both gone on to better things. Level and distance are fine as her close-up style. Very difficult to beat in this spot.
2nd pick: #5 (She's a Ketch) - Daughter of "Rahy" was well backed in her Saratoga debut and raced within range but offered no late bid. She's worked three times since for trainer Chad Brown and improvement can be expected.
3rd pick: #4 (Crusin'inthebridle) - Logical contender has run well in all four turf starts, but her lack of any early speed is a bit of a concern as is the cut back to a one-turn mile. Late threat at a short price.
