Top pick: #1 (MISS BETTE M) - Daughter of "Tale of the Cat" has the best early speed and she draws the rail. Last out she finished a pace-setting second in her first race on the dirt around two-turns and a repeat can win this.
2nd pick: #7 (Quitters Never Win) - Well-bred filly finished fourth last out and was two lengths back of "Bette" at the finish. Her previous start in early January produced a win and a career best figure. Very tough to hold off late.
3rd pick: #5 (Miss Darthmouth) - Veteran has been at this 3l condition a very long time but she does have early speed and a wet track win (and that may be the case today). Mare can be in this from start to finish.
