Top pick: #5 (BILEAPS AND BOUNDS) (7-2) - Speedy sort just failed here at this level and distance on April 2nd. Nice effort came in her second off a Jeremiah Englehart claim and he adds blinkers for this attempt. Filly had a bullet 3-furlong breeze at Belmont a week ago and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Very Accomplished) (7-5) - The "morning line" favorite, filly has won two in a row, the latest coming here at this distance April 9th. Stalker is still improving and the "figure" earned in her latest victory is the highest any of these has ever reached. Obvious win threat.
3rd pick: #4 (Wisdom of Oz) (10-1) - Strong finisher has rallied from far back to finish third in three straight starts and last out was only a head back of "Bileaps and Bounds." The faster the pace, the better her prospects.
4th pick: #1 (Sheriffa) (3-1) - Lightly-raced home-bred hasn't raced since late Nov. when she chased and tired racing in a $150K stakes for fellow New York breds. She has the rail and daughter of "Posse" can factor if ready.
