Top pick: #1 (LADY OF THE FOREST) - Runs first offan Assaf Ronan claim and this filly will double-up in price for this attempt. Stalking style fits the race as the pace looks fast/contested. This 4yr.old by "Forestry" can win this from just off the pace.
2nd pick: #6 (Valuable Lady) - Another racing first off a claim, this one by veteran Neal Terracciano. Has plenty of speed, she's beaten better in the past, and the new barn will remove her blinkers off a one race experiment. Daughter of Value Plus has won on an "off" track in the past and that will be the case today.
3rd pick: #4 (Catreign) - Speed/stalker is wheeled back quickly (two weeks) off a solid 2nd place finish at this price and distance. Contends today with a repeat of that effort.
