Top pick: #6 (BEAUGRAPHER) - Daughter of "Beau Genius" broke her maiden last out on this course in her first start in almost three months. She had previously run well at Emerald Downs against tougher, and filly is in a good barn (Joe Toye). Can track a fast pace and win this down the lane.
2nd pick: #8 (Getawali) - Makes her first start on this course after competing in California on both of their circuits. Good speed shown in her last three and filly broke her maiden on conventional dirt in mid-August. In a very good barn (Keith Bennett) and she's a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Splendid Breeze) - Speedy mare is almost 6yrs.old and will only be making her third lifetime start. She's (2-1-1-0) in those tries and will get the addition of lasix today. With a fine trainer (Dennis Sowers) and she'll be running hard from the opening bell.
