Premium Pick

Top pick: #4 (KVELL) - Grey filly returns from Golden Gate Fields where she tired after stalking the pace in a turf contest racing for $20K. Goes turf to dirt and this daughter of "More Than Ready" has been competitive in all three previous starts on real dirt. Stalker should get a fast pace to trcak and can win this turning for home.

2nd pick: #6 (Sudden Ghost) - Dangerous filly finished third on this surface October 14th racing for $40K in a sprint, and last out she finished a pace-setting second at Hollywood at the same tag. Drops slightly, stretches-out in distance, and a win candidate in this spot.

3rd pick: #5 (Nifty Dream) - She set a pressured pace here at this price sprinting on Dec. 29 and tired in the last furlong to finish fourth. She's worked since, is brought back on short notice, and will be trying two-turns for the first time.
