Top pick: #9 (NEW YORK KITTEN) - Lightly raced home-bred from the winning barn of Mike Maker won here 17 days ago at this price going a bit shorter and is well spotted again by her barn as she goes an extra 1/16th of a mile. She can be placed just about anywhere and this outside post is an advantage on this surface. The top pick.
2nd pick: #1 (Mesa Rose) - She saved ground last out from an inside draw (like today), swung out turning for home and rallied to finih 2nd, two lengths in back of New York Kitten. Race was her first in two months and she just might narrow that gap in her 2nd off the rest.
3rd pick: #8 (Ain't Behavin') - Consitent mare has won 3 of her last 5 and is one for one on this surface. She has more early speed than most and should be in this from start to finish.
