Top pick: #1 (HIGH INFLATION) (5-2) - Filly comes off a very strong try at this tag and trip on Dec. 30. Racing for the first time in four months, she stumbled at the start, recovered to set a pressure pace and held gamely to miss by a head following a stretch long battle. A bullet half-mile work on Jan. 28 suggests she'll be tough again this afternoon.

2nd pick: #5 (Myperfectvalentine) (4-1) - Lightly-raced daughter of "Curlin" has some speed and trainer Linda Rice will drop her into a claimer for the first time. $125K yearling purchase should be involved from start-to-finish.

3rd pick: #4 (Melody Lin) (8-1) - Another daughter of "Curlin," she runs first off a Rich Schosberg claim. New bar has freshened her up for almost six weeks and they'll race her with lasix for the first time.

4th pick: #7 (Fuhrika) (10-1) - She finished 5 1/2 lengths back of "Inflation" last out after racing wide while pressing the pace. Effort was her best to date and she could grab a slice of this at a square price.
