Top pick: #3 (SKY SKIER) (7-2) - Lightly-raced home-bred just failed to hold on racing here at this level and distance on a sloppy surface on May 4th. Speed/stalker was racing off a 7 week freshening and has since come back with a sharp work on May 19th. Daughter of "Sky Mesa" gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #4 (Laguna Girl) (2-1) - Speedy daughter of "Henny Hughes" has been freshened up since a sub-par effort on Jan. 17. She broke through before the start that day and was never involved at any point. Ultra-consistent (9-2-4-2) prior to that and she's run well on this deep strip without winning (5-0-3-1) in the past.
3rd pick: #5 (Nuffsaid Nuffsaid) (5-2) - The field's strongest finisher, mare has been to the winner's circle six times and is 2-1-1-0 locally. Freshened up since March 20th, 5-year-old loves this trip (6-3-2-0), and is a win candidate if ready.
