Premium Pick

Top pick: #8 (DREAMING OF KITTEN) (6-1) - Filly is dropping to a new low in class and moves from turf to dirt for this attempt. Daughter of 'Kitten's Joy' raced wide last out on the Fair Grounds grass facing males. She had finished second and third in her previous pair there facing her own sex and can win this from off the pace.

2nd pick: #5 (Turn Signal) (5-1) - Clearly the main speed, disappointing daughter of 'Tale of the Cat' tired badly in all three races at Oaklwan Park facing tougher. Working well for her first since Feb 20, she has a new trainer (Brad Cox) 25% with new arrivals. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #6 (She's Messi) (20-1) - Longshot is racing second off an eight-month layoff and is dropping down in class. Mare ran evenly while never involved in her return April 15th at Keeneland. To go along with the drop, it's apprentice Gilligan off and Mike Mena aboard.

4th pick: #7 (Bandolera's Gold) (8-1) - Delta Downs shipper has finished third there in three of four outings. Stalker has taken serious money in every start and is working sharply for her first since Feb 12. Home bred is from an excellent barn (Tom Amoss). Don't just dismiss her.
