Top pick: #6 (ONE LAST FROG) - She raced evenly here facing special weights on Dec. 29 in her first start in 70 days. Trainer Dave Hoffmans will drop her down to a new low and add blinkers for this assignment. She finished second here in late Oct. and looks all set for a big race.
2nd pick: #3 (Cee's the Year) - Drops into a claimer off a 70-day freshening and trainer Ron Ellis will move her from grass to dirt and shorten her up in distance. Working fine, and a win candidate.
3rd pick: #2 (Missie Ky I You) - Stalker had some traffic issues here thre weeks ago and finished third of eight, almost 3 lengths back of today's rival "Regina". Racing back into shape following several layoffs and she has Rosario aboard for the first time and has a fine work on the Jan. 20.
