Top pick: #8 (LET THE KITTEN RUN) (5-2) - She's finished second in her last pair on the grass and was beaten a nose here on Dec. 2 racing at this tag and trip. Claimed that day by Wesley Ward, he's having a great meet so far (24-7-2-6) and he brings this filly back quickly and at the purchase price. Like her prospects.

2nd pick: #9 (Expressively ) (4-1) - Freshened up for almost two months, when last in action she missed by a neck racing at this tag and distance on the Keeneland "poly." 4-year-old had a sharp work here a week ago and looks set for a big effort.

3rd pick: #11 (Southern Heights) (5-1) - Nice effort when debuting on Dec. 2 in the same race as "Kitten," she had some trouble at the start and dud well to rally while wide to finish fourth. The Pletcher barn (33% second-time out) adds blinkers and Castellano is back on the re-ride.

4th pick: #4 (Miss Tapit) (8-1) - Price play rallied from far back to finish fourth at this distance in late October at Belmont and trainer Joe Orseno has had her on the sidelines since. Working steadily and filly had a fast half-mile gate breeze here Dec. 9, presumably with the blinkers on that she wears this afternoon in "live" action.
