Top pick: #1 (SUDDEN SNOWSTORM) (3-1) - Filly by 'Stormy Atlantic' enters off a pair of back-to-back second-place finishes here at this condition going around two-turns. Stalker has the rail, comes off a career best figure, and still has room for up-side.
2nd pick: #6 (Pinata Cat) (7-2) - The main speed, she ships from Saratoga where she tired after setting the pace in a 1 3/8ths mile turf contest Aug 20. A career best, it was her second back from almost a 9-month layoff. $150K daughter of 'Tiznow' is racing on a synthetic surface for the first time. A strong win threat.
3rd pick: #2 (Liberty Bond) (7-2) - Stretch-out sprinter has rallied to finish second and third in her first pair here going shorter. Grey 4-year-old has previous two-turn experience on the grass and must be left in the win mix.
4th pick: #5 (All Joya) (10-1) - Blinkers go on lightly-raced 3-year-old after a pair of even efforts in her first two starts. She received some betting action in each and may grab a share at a big price.
