Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (AQUACATE) (6-1) - She tired badly racing on the Los Alamitos dirt Dec 6. Clearly better on the grass, stalker is back on the turf and is racing with blinkers on for the first time. Has a shot at a square price.

2nd pick: #5 (Candy Genovesa) (5-1) - Filly is stretching out in distance and moving to the grass, both for the first time. She's bred for the turf and has some sharp works on view for her first since Nov 1.

3rd pick: #3 (Whispering Softly) (5-2) - The morning line favorite, she rallied to finish second when debuting at this distance Nov 1 at Kentucky Downs. Favored at Del Mar three weeks later, she rallied while wide to check in a distant third.

4th pick: #2 (Majestic Fantasy) (5-1) - Lasix is added for her first since debuting here at this level and distance Oct 17. Filly finished a distant fourth that day following a 'troubled' break. Working nicely and must be left in the mix.

5th pick: #6 (Queen Scheherazade) (12-1) - Well bred filly was never involved following a slow start here Oct 17. Daughter of 'Smart Strike' was five lengths behind 'Majestic Fantasy' but may be competitive with an alert getaway.
