Top pick: #8 (HARD BUNS) (5-1) - She cuts back in distance after a pair of fourth-place finishes on this course going a mile. One-run type goes third back off an eight week break and can take this "wide open" contest at a square price.
2nd pick: #9 (Joeandbetty'sbaby) (9-2) - Daughter of "Yes It's True" has been competitive in all three appearances and last out ran third at this often tricky "down the hill" trip facing tougher.
3rd pick: #7 (Rolanda) (6-1) - Another cutting back in distance and this Moss home-bred has finished behind "Buns' in her last pair. Trainer John Sadler has her working very fast for this attempt and she looks set for a competitive race.
4th pick: #1 (Miss Judged) (12-1) - Longshot has the inside post and showed good early speed before tiring last out going a mile. Runs second off a Vann Belvoir claim and her early speed makes her dangerous.
5th pick: #6 (Cravin' the Heat) (12-1) - Home-bred by "Unusual Heat" raced evenly at this trip when debuting facing a bit better on Feb. 24. She's worked fast twice since and owner/trainer Barry Abrams brings her back quickly for her second outing.
