Top pick: #5 (KILLARNY CASTLE) - Very sharp trainer (Greg DiPrima) sends this filly down from New York for this contest. Claimed in late September, she won impressively seven weeks later at the Meadowlands and has had five weeks of freshening since then. Has both speed and stalking ability and she's the choice for the win.
2nd pick: #6 (Stephaningrid) - Speedy filly will stretch-out for the first time in her career today. Lightly raced and in a good barn (Richard Vega), she is the probable pace setter and could last a long time.
3rd pick: #2 (In Command) - Ran 12 days ago at Aqueduct in a sprint. Likes distance racing and and is set-up on the quick turnaround and stretch-out in yardage for a big try.
