Top pick: #6 (SHEZABIGBROAD) - Lightly-raced filly rallied to win here going 6 furlongs here on the dirt Feb. 2. Effort came in her first start in exactly five months and she was claimed that afternoon by Mike Mitchell for $25,000. New barn wins at a 35% rate fresh off the claim and he'll move her to the grass and stretch her out in distance.
2nd pick: #3 (Sunburn) - The probable favorite, she finished fourth beaten less than a length racing here at this distance on Jan. 19. Race was her first off a short vacation and trainer Sean McCarthy has worked her three times since. Mare by "In Excess" has some early speed and that's a big plus in this small gathering.
