Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (AN EDDIE SURPRISE) (4-1) - Reddam home bred switches to the dirt after finishing second at this level here Oct. 29 going 6.5 furlongs on the grass. Nice debut and he enters of a bullet half-mile work Jan. 6.

2nd pick: #12 (Gracious Me) (5-2) - The morning line favorite, home bred finished second when debuting at this level and distance at Los Alamitos Dec. 15. A solid debut and she draws a nice outside post to get on or near the top at the break.

3rd pick: #5 (Ms Dupree) (6-1) - One of seven making their debuts, she's worked five times locally since early December, including a pair of very sharp 5 furlong drills from the gate. A major factor if ready.

4th pick: #7 (Mischievous Song) (10-1) - She finished second when debuting here for a $40K tag Oct. 21. Claimed that afternoon by Jerry Hollendorfer, she raced evenly at this level Dec. 1 in her first for the new barn. All four works since then are above average and this grey filly can factor at a big price.
