Top pick: #8 (SLEEK) (6-1) - Price play hasn't raced since late Sept. when she raced evenly here after being bumped heavily at the break. Daughter of "Bernardini" ran fine once in stride and has been working sharply here since late March. Barn (Mike Hushion) is having a solid year and this Broman home-bred can take this if ready.

2nd pick: #12 (Lady Kreesa) (7-2) - Reported to be a runner, filly has many sharp AM drills on view including a bullet half-mile gate breeze here on April 28th (best of 108 at that distance that morning).

3rd pick: #3 (Eddy's Time) (7-2) - She enters off a career best when she rallied to finish second at this level going two-turns at Aqu. April 25th. It was her first since late Nov. and 4-year-old has previous experience on this course 4-0-1-1.

4th pick: #4 (Baby B) (6-1) - Lightly raced, she set a slow pace and held to finish 3rd of 10, beaten three lengths racing at Aqu. April 23th. It was her first in 2 1/2 months, first on the turf, and she has room for upside.

5th pick: #9 (Nile Empress) - Trainer Chad Brown has freshened this daughter of "Big Brown" up since she raced evenly in a pair on the inner-surface earlier in the year. Bred for the grass, it's noted that filly took betting action in both of those outings.
