Top pick: #5 (MY MISS AURELIA) (4-5) - Filly lost for the first time when she finished a strong 2nd in the "Breeder's Cup Ladies Classic"(G1)on this surface to Champ "Royal Delta". Working fast for this cut-back attempt, and she'll be very tough with her best.
2nd pick: #3 (Reneesgotzip) (4-1) - Hard-hitter is (9-5-2-1) overall and is (4-1-2-0) racing here on real dirt. Daughter of "City Zip" has learned to harness her speed a bit and she's a threat from wherever jockey Garret Gomez places her.
3rd pick: #7 (Book Review) (6-1) - One of three entered by trainer Bob Baffert and this home-bred by "Giant's Causeway" is a dirt specialist and is 3 for 4 at this 7 furlong distance. Strong finisher would benefit from a fast/and or contested pace.
