Top pick: #4 (RECESS) - Speedy mare runs 3rd back off a 4 month layoff and she looked sharp last out winning at Fairplex. Very consistent runner has a stalking gear and that should come in handy in this spot. She's won here before and is the horse to beat this afternoon.
2nd pick: #1 (Look to the Sky) - Raced evenly at Fairplex on Sept. 27th, in her first back off a re-claim by Peter Miller. Draws the rail, has a sharp local drill on Oct. 9th, and she should be closing fast late. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Saint's Crown) - Only has one gear and that's to take the lead early and goes as far as she can. Has a apprentice aloft and the strategy would seem to be to break cleanly and go as far as she can while in front. Has a shot if the top pick leaves her alone early.
