Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (SAANNEEN) - Lightly raced, competitive, and she excels at this 6.5 furlong "down the hill" trip (3-2-1-0). Daughter of "Cee's Tizzy" can be placed just about anywhere and she's the choice for the win.

2nd pick: #8 (La Nez) - Veteran stakes performer has won on this course in the past but not at this distance. Stalker has a lot of speed to track and 4-year-old by "Storm Creek" can impact this afternoon at a nice price.

3rd pick: #4 (Part Time Luck) - In great shape at present she has plenty of early speed and was claimed two back by the Canani barn. She gives away a lot of turf experience to the others, but this isn't the strongest field on paper and she has a solid shot with Bejarano back aboard.
