Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (SENSIBLE MYTH) (7-2) - Daughter of 'Street Sense' stretches out in distance following a second place finish when debuting at this level going 5 furlongs at Del Mar Nov. 16. She's worked three times since, including a near bullet half mile Dec. 23 and gets top billing.

2nd pick: #3 (Lady Bug) (8-1) - Longshot is cutting back in distance and races of an eight week freshening. She's finished close up in her last pair going a mile and it's noted that this $360,000 filly by 'Medaglia d'Oro' has taken solid betting action in all three outings. Look for a competitive effort at a square price.

3rd pick: #2 (Chickatini) (4-1) - Blinkers go on filly who had a very rough trip when finishing only 1.5 lengths in back of 'Sensible Myth' when debuting at Del Mar going 5 furlongs Nov 16. Bet down to 3-1 hat afternoon, she's worked three times since for the capable Pete Eurton.

4th pick: #8 (Mapit) (15-1) - Longshot moves to the grass after tiring in all three attempts on the dirt. Home bred by 'Tapit' should handle the surface change and enters off a bullet 5 furlongs from the gate here Dec. 21. Dangerous at a big price.
