Premium Pick

Top pick: #3 (LINDY) (5-2) - Filly by "War Front" cost $250K last Sept. at Keeneland and won $21,000 of that back when she was an easy winner when debuting on the "Tapeta" surface at Presque Isle Downs May 13th. In a top barn with juveniles (Wesley Ward), he brings in veteran jockey Mario Pino for the mount.

2nd pick: #6 (Fashion Alert) (2-1) - Debuting filly is in the barn of Todd Pletcher (25% with first out juveniles) and this $125K yearling purchase has some fast works on view. A bullet 5-furlong local gate drill on June 1st suggests her readiness.

3rd pick: #1 (Awesomendensome) (5-1) - Fla.-bred was a gate-to-wire winner when debuting in a 4.5-furlong contest at Gulfstream park on May 2nd. She has the rail and had a bullet 3-furlong breeze at Calder before shipping north.

4th pick: #2 (Liatris) (7-2) - Pimlico invader rallied from off the pace to win going away there on May 30th at a 5-furlong trip. That earned her the highest figure of those that have started, and she must be left in the mix.
