Top pick: #1 (HALF BUZZED) - She's taken money in all of her starts and shown good early speed before tiring. Grey 2yo has the rail, the best early speed, and trainer Randy Nunley will be stretching her out in distance for the first time. She can take this group from gate to wire.
2nd pick: #2 (Popic) - She showed a much improved run last out when switched to the turf. Filly raced close up facing tougher and held until the top of the stretch whhere she tired. Drops, moves back to the main track, and makes back to back starts for the first time.
3rd pick: #6 (High Compression) - She raced well in her debut to finish an even 4th, then tired last out in a much tougher field racing at the same $10K tag. Stretches-out today and leading rider Joe Rocco is aboard for the first time.
