Premium Pick

Top pick: #7 (TWO TAPS) (4-1) - Filly moves from turf to dirt for her second start. Grey daughter of 'Tapit' was away slowly before rallying to finish fourth when debuting here on the grass April 11. Trainer John Shirreffs wins at a 27% rate second time out, and this well bred filly gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #2 (Never Ends) (3-1) - The field's most experienced maiden has finished second in all four starts. Stalker lost by a 'head' racing here at this distance March 7 and is an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #3 (Half Past Midnight) (5-2) - She rallied to finish third despite some traffic issues when debuting here going 5.5-furlongs April 4. Only a 'nose' back of 'Half Past Midnight' that day, and the additional furlong she travels is in her favor.

4th pick: #4 (Moyo Honey) (8-1) - One of four fillies making their debuts, daughter of 'Mizzen Mast' has been working very fast here over the past six weeks. Bred more for grass success, her a.m. drills are too good to ignore.
