Top pick: #1 (BAREFOOT BABY) - Consistent runner (15-4-2-3) was claimed out of a win last out by veteran trainer Kate DeMasi. Filly is fresh, draws a great inside post, and does her best work from a stalking position. She likes the distance (6-3-2-0) and is two for three on this surface. New trainer is a solid 18% first off the buy.
2nd pick: #10 (Tease) - Reclaimed last out by trainer Keith Lebarron from the high-percentage Michael Gill operation. A real horse for the course (16-3-4-3) and she seemed a "tad" short last out, her first race in seven weeks.
3rd pick: #8 (Grand Prize) - Another who was claimed last out from a winning race. Very consistent filly (15-4-1-6), likes this surface (7-2-1-2), and may get a fast pace set-up that will help her cause.
