Top pick: #3 (UPBEAT MOOD) - One of three fillies entered who has won before on the grass, she did so when sprinting at Holywood Park on June 17th. Last out she was beaten only a length in the $100K Del Mar's "Juvenile Fillies Turf" racing off a 2 1/2 month freshening on Sept. 3. Working fast and trainer Mike Puype adds blinkers.

2nd pick: #7 (Truly Marie) - Daughter of "Hard Spun" defeated "Mood" by a 1/2 length last out in the same Sept. 3 grass stakes at Del Mar. Speedy sort is working well here since then and she should be involved from start to finish.

3rd pick: #5 (Bares Tripper) - She earned the highest "fig" of any entered when she was an easy winner on the Fairplex dirt in a $100K stakes on Sept. 15. She tries the grass for the first time and is bred to like the grass.
