Top pick: #3 (PSALM SIXTEEN) (6-1) - Price play has been bet in both starts facing togher and ran evenly in each. Freshened up since Jan 31st, daughter of "Songandaprayer" is working sharply for her return and she gets blinkers added and a positive rider change to Marty Pedroza.
2nd pick: #9 (Frannie'sspiritto) (9-2) - Filly takes the big drop into claimers for the first time and to along with it trainer Julio Canani switches her from turf to "poly" annd removes her blinkers after a one race experiment.
3rd pick: #4 (Magic Maya) (5-1) - She raced both wide & evenly at Santa Anita on March 31st in her first at this $20K price. She switches back to the "all weather" today and her best ever came on a similar surface in late August at Del Mar.
4th pick: #1 (Bas) (5-2) - She's listed as the morning line favorite, but holds no real advantage. Has the rail, runs 2nd back from a 5 month layoff, and is working nicely. Must be left in the mix.
