Premium Pick

Top pick: #5 (BONITA STAR) - English-bred filly has been sharp in both starts since switching to the stable of Mike Mitchell. Last out she finished second here facing slightly tougher going a mile and she'll drop down in price and shorten-up in distance this afternoon. Three-year-old can run them down late.

2nd pick: #2 (Carousel) - Runs first a claim by Doug O'Neill and he drops her under the $40K purchase price. Blinkers go on this English-bred filly and she was less than a length off of "Bonita" last out at the wire.

3rd pick: #4 (Judicious) - She has more early speed than most entered and is a solid 5-for-9 on synthetic surfaces. She'll be trying the grass for the first time and her breeding indicates that the new footing shouldn't be a problem.
