Top pick: #6 (WARREN'S CRACKER) (3-1) - Lightly raced Warren home-bred is working both steadily and above average for her first since March 17 when she finished second at this level and distance on the Santa Anita lawn. Takes this if ready.
2nd pick: #2 (Coconut Cream Pie) (7-2) - Speed/stalker runs off her second straight layoff, and has finished second in three of five starts on the grass. Filly has done well on this course (3-0-2-1), and has done so against tougher fields than this in the past.
3rd pick: #5 (Little Unusual) (10-1) - Longshot continues to race evenly, and fits with these from a "figure" standpoint. Mare could do some late damage at a big price.
4th pick: #7 (Sidepocket Run) (8-1) - No speed type stretches back out after finishing sixth of 10, beaten 4 1/2 lengths going "down the hill" at Santa Anita on Nov. 3rd. She needs to better in the late stages.
