Premium Pick
(# 8) THREE SHOTS - Moves outside at a flat mile today to make her third start off a nine-week freshening. Current pair on view are about a month apart and that would make it three starts with that pattern today. Has some speed and a tactical gear to compliment if needed. Last race was her best from a figure standpoint, and the one-turn nature of this mile race should be just right for her.

(# 9) Regal Playtime - Filly drops into a claimer after trying a stakes, and racing on the turf in her two return races from a March layoff. Filly was taken to Gulfstream by Reynolds, so he must have thought something of her. May run much better on the big drop in class, along with the grass tightener to help her conditioning.

(# 3) Cabbage Patch Gal - Finished a couple of lengths behind the top pick two back at Monmouth in a two-turn affair. Ran well, closing in a six-furlong grass sprint in latest. That should have her set up well for this.

(# 4) Island Reversal - Goes from turf to dirt, and drops into a claimer for the Dick Dutrow barn. Fields most experienced runner, at least comes into this in good racing condition.
