Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (TIZ A MASTER) (4-1) - She's won two in a row and was victorious here at this level going six furlongs Dec. 31. Home bred filly has worked twice since, and her outside post at this 6.5-furlong distance will give apprentice Figueroa some early options.
2nd pick: #5 (Mucho Unusual) (8-5) - Very sharp in all three starts, she finished 2nd here going seven furlongs in a $200,000 stakes for fellow Cal-breds Nov. 2. Freshened up since, she's worked six times here since late November, and is an obvious win candidate at a short price.
3rd pick: #3 (Hotitude) (5-2) - This speedy filly was only a 1/2-length in back of 'Mucho Unusual' here Nov. 2, then finished a pace-pressing 2nd in a $100K mile stakes at Los Alamitos Dec. 15. Bred/owned/trained by Kristin Mulhall, this filly should be involved every step.
