Top pick: #4 (ZEE ZEE) - Comes off a short freshening from the Richard Dutrow barn and will be shortening up for this attempt. She's kept very good company her whole career and should be able to win this with a late move. Trainer is especially adept off short breaks (like today).
2nd pick: #1 (What She Said) - Fast filly appeared to be a bit "short" last out coming off a layoff. Loves the distance and draws the rail. She should be much sharper in her second back for the Scott Lake barn.
3rd pick: #5 (Ahvee's Destiny) - Talented mare has won six of 13 tries at this abbreviated distance and will be coming off a five-month layoff this afternoon. She'll need her best off the bench for a shot at the win.
