Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (TOINETTE) (8-5) - One of a pair entered by Neil Drysdale, she's gone 8-6-0-1 since switching to the grass in her second start, and is a perfect three for three on the Santa Anita turf. Stalker likes this distance and should win another if she holds her excellent present form.

2nd pick: #4 (Simply Breathess) (9-2) - The second of the Drysdale trained pair, this English import ships back from Belmont where she was beaten by three lengths in a G3 stakes Oct. 20. A winner here at this distance in the Wilshire Stakes (G3) June 22, this 4yo completes a strong hand from the barn.

3rd pick: #2 (Coach Rocks) (5-1) - Filly ships from Churchill where she won at this distance facing optional $80K claimers/N3X foes Sept. 27. Speedy sort earned a figure that fits well here, and her early speed is a plus.

4th pick: #1 (Don't Blame Judy) (20-1) - Longhsot has no early speed and is moving up in class. Stretch runner is consistent facing weaker, has a ground saving post here, and may rally for a minor award at a very big price.
