Premium Pick

Top pick: #4 (KICKEN VIXEN) - Claimed last out by Tom Amoss (always a strong winning angle at this meet) he immediately shortens her up in distance after she's been running longer in her previous five starts. Has enough speed to stay close and can go by these in the stretch run.

2nd pick: #5 (Better Than Swiss) - She's always shown some ability, filly broke her maiden two back at Belmont in start number nine. Likes the grass sprinting game and she ran well last out in her first vs. winners. Comes here in shape and with a new trainer (Bret Calhoun). Contender is one of two fillies from the barn barn and they'll race uncoupled.

3rd pick: #1 (Turtle Creek Babe) - Returns from a long layoff (11 months) and is sent to the turf by her new trainer (Bret Calhoun). Filly was facing stakes company in California last winter on Santa Anita's "Pro Ride" surface and is in a barn that's always good off of layoffs.
