(# 3) SOUTH AFRICAN BABY - May have been just a tad short in last as filly hadn't run in a little over three months. Saved ground and rallied down the hedge with about four horses to her right. Not an easy thing for lightly raced maidens to do. Fired a big time bullet on March 2 and thinking she may be on the lead against suspect group.

(# 8) LERICI - Encountered a touch of trouble in last and still ran a fine third. Biancone is a patient man and this filly is sitting on her best race to date today. The positioning into the first turn for her is more important than our top pick, as "Baby," will probably secure the hedge.
