Premium Pick

Top pick: #1a (BLISS) (3-1) - She steps up in class and has a four race winning streak coming into this small stakes. Speed/stalker will be racing beyond 6.5 furlongs for the first time, but should have little problem based on her breeding. Grey daughter of "Flashy Bull" is 2-1-1-0 on wet tracks and can upset this field at 3 or 4-1.

2nd pick: #3 (My Happy Face) (6-5) - The probable heavy favorite, she's gone 5-2-3-0 overall and was beaten a head here last fall at this distance in the "Frizette" stakes (G1). She goes today off a 4 1/2 month layoff and has a new trainer (Chad Brown 27% with new arrivals). The probable heavy favorite and an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #4 (Majestic Marquet) (6-1) - Like "Bliss" she has four career wins and has taken three of her last four overall. In career best shape, one-run type is 3-for-7 on wet surfaces and was an easy winner locally over weaker on May 10th.
