Top pick: #4 (DITA) - Home-bred runs third back off an 8 1/2 month layoff. She raced evenly last out at Aqueduct going a mile facing special weights and trainer Tom Bush will drop her down, shorten her up in distance, and add blinkers. Looks set for her best.
2nd pick: #11 (Rennina) - Mare hasn't raced since early November, but has worked six time in the past 45 days for trainer Jim Bond. She's been competitive a number of times and Dominguez is aboard in this 5-year-old's return to action. The trainer/jockey combo is a strong one, winning at a 31% rate over the past 18 months.
3rd pick: #2 (Believe in Betty) - Grey filly made a middl-move before weakening at Aqueduct going two-turns facing tougher April 11th. Effort was her best to date and first ever on the grass. Trainer Dom Galluscio brings her back quickly and cuts her back to 6 furlongs.
4th pick: #5 (Red Code) - Price play moves to the grass and drops slightly in price for thius attempt. Bred to like the lawn and trainer Gary Sciacca give her a rider upgrade for this attempt.
