Premium Pick

Top pick: #5 (HEIR TO DATE) - She's been sharp in all her starts (5-1-4-0) and broke her maiden at Gulfstream Park on Jan. 20 racing off a 10 month layoff. 4-year-old by "Wildcat Heir" followed that up by finishing second at this level March 25th in her first facing winners. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #7 (Naughty or Nice) - Lightly-raced and well-bred filly from the darley Stable broke her maiden March 1st on the inner-surface at Aqueduct and did so off a 10 month layoff. Daughter of "Bernardini" then ran a non-threatening fourth at this level April 18th. Draws a nice outside post and Dominguez stays put.

3rd pick: #1 (Abide) - Filly by two time Breeders' Cup Classic winner "Tiznow" hasn't raced since showing nothing at Saratoga Sept. 5 of 2010 in the Spinaway S.(G1). She spent the winter training in Florida at Palm Meadows and has an excellent half-mile breeze here on May 6th. Major force if ready.
