Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (TARIS) (2-1) - Very lightly-raced and well-managed mare, is stretching out around two-turns. Speed/stalker has gone 9-5-1-2 racing on real dirt and has a tactical edge on this group. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #5 (Yahilwa) (5-2) - Hard hitter tired at Keeneland in the G1 Breeders' Cup Distaff Oct 30. Only beaten six lengths, stakes winner should be involved in this every step. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #6 (Birdatthewire) (3-1) - No-speed type rallied to win the G1 La Brea Stakes going 7-furlongs Dec 26. She's won at this distance in the past and is in a three-horse win mix.
