Top pick: #7 (SACRED OVATION) (4-1) - One of two entered by trainer Pete Miller and the pair race uncoupled.Colt broke his maiden here on Nov 22nd racing for $30K and he was claimed that day by Miller. He seems to prefer the all weather, draws a nice outside post, and can make it two in a row.
2nd pick: #6 (Rubysandpearls) (5-2) - The 2nd of the Miller 2yos, he comes from Calder where hs'e won two in a row making him the fields only multiple winner. Runs off an 80 day break and is an obvious contender if he takes to the new footing.
3rd pick: #1 (The Whole Deal) (3-1) - Grey son of "Holy Bull" ran a career best when breaking his maiden here at this distance racing for a $30K tag on Nov 8th. Prior to that he'd been facing some tough fields and a repeat of his latest effort makes him a threat.
