Top pick: #1 (INDIAN CARLIE) - Lightly-raced filly by "Indian Charlie" finished a pace-chasing second here last out at this trip and condition in her first race in three months. Likes the surface (3-1-2-0) and trainer ships her back from Hoosier Park where she had a nice work on Oct. 6. She should improve enough in her second off the layoff to win this.

2nd pick: #10 (Boozy Bird) - Races for the dangerous barn of Joe Woodard (36-of-104 here this year). She has early speed and will be cutting back in distance and switching back to real dirt in her third off a two month break. Can factor in this spot.

3rd pick: #4 (She Has a Heart) - Five-time winner is 3-for-6 locally and moves up in class following a very easy 9 1/2 length win here racing for $5K just 15 days ago. Capable speed/stalker comes off a career best and can impact at a nice price.

4th pick: #3 (Take It and Go) - She's moves up in class following a pair of even efforts in her last pair facing tough upper-level claimers. One-run type sould get a solid pace to close into and will be a nice price.
