Top pick: #5 (KAHLUA MIST) - Claimed in early Feb. by trainer Vlad Cerin for $12.5K mare has shown immediate improvement off the barn change and "gutted" out a front-end win last out at the purchase price. Lightly raced 5-year-old has worked since, drops in value, and is the choice to take another.
2nd pick: #6 (Just Call'er) - Recent maiden winner has improved noticeably since switching to conventional dirt and comes off a strong effort March 24 to pick up career victory No. 1. Conservatively spotted in her first facing winners and she draws a nice post at this trip for her style. Win candidate.
