Top pick: #8 (MRS DARCY) (7-2) - In the barn of veteran Neil Howard, filly showed some speed before tiring when debuting on July 4th on the turf at Ellis Park facing special weights. Bred for the grass, Howard has worked her four times since, and drops her way down for her second attempt.

2nd pick: #2b (Chelan Echo) (3-1) - Part of an entry with #2 "Miss Venezuela," and trainer Tim Glyshaw has separate riders listed on both halves. This filly by "Lion Heart" has run well in both starts here on the grass at this level, and is a win candidate from close range.

3rd pick: #4 (Harlican) (12-1) - Daughter of "Harlan's Holiday" races first off a Jim Corrigan claim (one for three over the past 19 months),and he'll raise her a bit in price, move her from dirt to turf, and stretch her out in distance. 3yo ran okay at Gulfstream on March 20th facing tougher on the grass, and can factor today at a big price.

4th pick: #6 (Suavity) (6-1) - Filly broke "slowly" and was never involved when debuting June 23rd at Churchill sprinting on the dirt for a $50K tag. Very capable barn (Eric Reed) drops her way down in price, switches her from dirt to turf, moves her out in distance, and adds blinkers.
