Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (MISS MUNNINGS) (4-1) - Mare enters off a 'neck' loss here at this distance and claiming price. It was her first start in 7.5 months and she faced males that afternoon. Back in with her own sex she gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #1 (Fast Mama) (5-2) - One of two entered by trainer Chad Brown and the pair race uncoupled. $300,000 daughter of 'Kitten's Joy' finished a close up third at Aqueduct Nov. 15, is training steadily, has the rail, and runs with blinkers on.
3rd pick: #3 (Peace Front) (7-2) - The second of the fillies from trainer Chad Brown, home bred by 'War Front' is dropping into a claimer for the first time. Stretch runner is working above average at Palm Meadows and has both blinkers and Javier Castellano added.
4th pick: #2 (Sympathetic) (6-1) - Home bred by 'Smart Strike' is another dropping into a claimer for the first time. She's making her 12th start, but has been sharp in two of her last three and had a wide post as an excuse last out. Can factor at a square price.
