Top pick: #3 (AVALON ROSE) - Speedy filly set the pace and tired here at this level and distance on Sept. 9 in her first back off a 65 day freshening. She may have needed the start and can take this crew from gate-to-wire.
2nd pick: #1 (Brook's Secret) - She's part of a Tom Short trained entry and he has separate riders listed on the two fillies. She's shown noticeable improvement of late and comes into this off a pair of back-to-back second-place finishes here at this level. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Emma's Holy Bee) - Filly raced evenly at Presque Isle Aug. 31 in her first off a seven week break and first facing winners. She broke her maiden here July 14th, has fines early speed and draws the rail.
