Top pick: #7 (DOUBLE THE ENERGY) - Grey filly is one of two entered here by trainer Linda Rice and the pair race uncoupled. New York-bred was claimed two months ago at Saratoga for $50K and was a winner here a week ago at the same level in her first for the new barn. Speed/stalker has back class and is the horse to beat if she goes.
2nd pick: #8 (Easy Ending) - Very speedy 4-year-old has a fine overall record (11-4-4-0) and was a winner here at this distance facing weaker on Sept. 12. Her trainer (Rudy Rodriguez) has been on a strong streak of late and this filly is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Centrique) - She comes off a pair of back-to-back wins here and has won from both on and off the pace. Daughter of "Malibu Moon" is in career best form and Dominguez stays put.
