Top pick: #4 (GIRLABOUTTOWN) (2-1) - Lightly-raced and beautifully bred, daughter of "A.P. Indy" has been freshened up since Sept. 19 when she chased a fast pace and tired to finish fourth at this level and distance at Belmont. That contest had a final time of 1:34 flat and the field was tougher than this one. The top pick, but reverse your exactas for a few dollars.
2nd pick: #5 (Official) (9-2) - She's developed into a strong stretch runner and won here at this trip on Nov. 8. That was her second back from an 80-day break and she's in the barn of the leading trainer at this meet (Dave Jacobson). Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Canal Six) (5-1) - Stakes placed filly has gone 6-2-2-2 on fast track and enters off an easy win at Belmont Oct. 17. She was much closer to the pace than normal for her and home bred may grab a share at a square price.
4th pick: #7 (Bridgetta) (8-1) - Stretch out sprinter has a speed stalking style and has gone 7-3-2-1 this year after returning from a 15-month layoff on May 21st. She's racing first off a claim and is trying this mile trip for the first time. Don't just totally dismiss her.
