Top pick: #6 (EASY ENDING) - Ships down from New York for the Rudy Rodriguez barn and the trainer has won at a 50% rate (8-for-16) with similar invaders. Lightly-raced filly finished second at Aqueduct April 20th, facing New York-bred allowance foes and is beautifully spotted in this starter-allowance.
2nd pick: #8 (Fuming) - One of two entered here by the barn of "Lupe" Guerrero and the two fillies race as separate interests. Lightly-raced 3-year-old has a pair of back-to-back gate to wire wins in her last two starts and her speed makes her a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Sneakers) - Speedy sort went wire-to-wire to win here at this level on April 1st. Speed/stalker barely hung on that day, but her rail post and local record (5-2-3-0) puts her in the mix.
