Premium Pick

Top pick: #4 (CUSTOMER BASE) - Working nicely locally for her first start since late November, trainer Tom Proctor will add blinkers for today's assignment. She finished 7th of 14 last fall in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf (G2) and lost more ground by racing wide than she was beaten. The pick at a nice price.

2nd pick: #1 (Northern Passion) - Part on an entry with #1a "Dixie Strike" and both fillies have talent. This daughter of "First Samurai" won the G3 Natalma S. at Woodbine last September defeating a strong field in her only grass attempt to this point. Working fine at Palm Meadows, and a big threat if ready off a three month break.

3rd pick: #7 (Regalo Mia) - Price play was an impressive maiden winner at Gulfstream going a mile on the turf on Dec. 30. Very few runners win from the No. 12 post there in two-turn races and she did so over a next out winner.
