Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (HAVRE DE GRACE) - Last year she went (7-5-1-0) winning three Grade 1's including the Woodward at Saratoga when she defeated a solid field of males. Like most older classy mares her desire to remain on the track has been determined by her mental outlook in the mornings. Many lose interest in racing (a good example being Rachel Alexandra), but this daughter of "Saint Liam" is training like a 2-year-old at this point in time. Much the horse to beat.

2nd pick: #5 (Juanita) - She has both speed and ability and last year won the rich G2 Indiana Oaks at Hoosier Park by going wire-to-wire. Last out she finished a pace setting third here in a small stakes on Feb. 11 and will no doubt be sent right to the front. Takes them as far as she can.
