Top pick: #3 (KEIRALICIOUS) - Grey filly is one of two entered by trainer "Lupe" Guerrero and the two will race uncoupled. Claimed on Feb 11th for $10K, she was sent in for almost a 100 day freshening and finished 3rd racing for $16,000 at this mile trip May 15th in her return. Last out on June 2nd she ran 2nd at this level and distance and has worked since. 3yo goes 3rd off the layoff and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Lady S) - Mare has been freshened up since April 7th and goes today off a trainer change to Pete Walder. The level and distance are fine and she's has a trio of works showing at Monmouth in preparation for her return.
3rd pick: #2 (Wade County) - The main speed, she's one two in a row locally, the latest coming here at this level and distance just 9 days ago. 3yo has improved since being claimed by Keith Lebarron for $10K in late February and is dangerous again on the front end.
