Premium Pick

Top pick: #7 (POSSE'S STARLET) - Price play showed much improved early speed in her 2nd start and this daughter of "Posse" has been bet each time out. Canadian-bred draws outside of the other speed and will give rider Kike Mena some early options. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #6 (Chasing Alpha) - Debuting filly by "Elusive Quality" has been in steady training since early Feb, initially at the Fair Grounds and more recently on this surface. A bullet half-mile breeze here April 15th indicates she's ready to go.

3rd pick: #2 (Purses Galore) - $60,000 daughter of "Successful Appeal" was competitive in all three starts last year as a 2yo and runs off almost an 8 month break. In a very good barn (Ed Kenneally) and he wins at a solid 22% clip off of long layoffs.
