Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (FRANDONTJUDGE) (2-1) - Lightly-raced filly stretches out in distance for her first facing winners after a sharp maiden win here going 6 furlongs for a $30K tag Oct. 3. Improving, draws well, and Bejarano stays put.

2nd pick: #1 (One More Wild Ride) (6-1) - Price play has early speed and draws the rail. Daughter of "Wildcat Heir" tired last out after chasing a fast pace going 7 furlongs and could get an easy early lead in this spot.

3rd pick: #6 (Appearance) (3-1) - One of two entered by trainer Bob Baffert and this daughter of "Harlington" broke her maiden here at this trip just 17 days ago. Contender, she's worked nicely since, but looses Bejarano to "Fran."

4th pick: #5 (Back to Life) (7-2) - The field's only maiden, he rallied strongly last out to miss by just under a length to "Appearance." The race was his first in 70 days and he must be left in the mix.
