Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (JADE'S SONG) - Freshened-up since a close-up third-place finish at Del Mar at this price August 20, she's working nicely for trainer Mike Puype, presumably with the blinkers on that she'll wear in "live" action for the first time. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #5 (Miss Becca) - Speed/stalker comes off a strong second-place finish on the Fairplex dirt and she's come-back with a near bullet drill on this surface 10 days ago. Four-year-old will be involved from start-to-finish.

3rd pick: #4 (Leggylangleylassie) - First timer has a steady work tab dating back to late July and a very fast 5 furlong breeze here nine days ago. "Speed" rider Pat Valenzuela is aboard and expect him to get this filly by "Skimming" involved when the gate opens.
