Top pick: #6 (MILLENNIUM STAR) - Lightly raced filly has been competitive in both starts on the grass and trainer Wayne Catalano will add blinkers, drop her in price, and switch her to a "poly" surface for the first time. Gets the call in a well-balanced field.
2nd pick: #3 (Flashy American) - She takes the big drop into claimers for the first time. Grey filly by "Flashy Bull" raced evenly from a tough outside poat last out and draws much better today. She has some speed and a shrp recent work in her corner.
3rd pick: #10 (English Notes) - Daughter of gras champ "English Channel" took some money in her three grass starts at Gulfstream and showed that she has some talent. Drops to a new low in price and Desormeaux is back on the re-ride.
4th pick: #2 (Satyana) - Another taking the drop into claimers for the first time. Padua Stables home-bred showed some fine early speed two back at Gulfstream then broke slowly in her latest. Working fine and she's in the mix.
