Premium Pick

Top pick: #5 (STRIKE IT RICH) - Well-bred grey filly ships up from Florida where he finished third in a small stakes at Calder Apr. 25th. Effort was only her second since last July at Saratoga and she's come back with a nice work there since shipping north. Daughter of "Unbridled's Song" has good early speed and can win this at a nice price.

2nd pick: #4 (Becky's Exchange) - Longshot also has good early speed and last out finished a strong third here facing weaker going a mile May 11. Race was her first off a claim and first in 2 1/2 months. Trainer Bob Barbara brings her back quickly and she can factor at a nice price.

3rd pick: #7 (Prize Catch) - Strong finisher ships up from Florida where she was competitive in 2 of 3 starts at Gulfstream during the winter and early spring. In a good barn and this 4-year-old by "A.P. Indy" is improving and would benefit the most by a fast/contested pace.
