Top pick: #8 (NICEGIRLSFNISHLAST) (3-1) - Filly has been competitive in all three start and last out at Del Mar was beaten narrowly when racing at this level and distance. Effort came off almost an eight month break and she's worked five times since. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #5 (Passionate Diva) (5-2) - Daughter of "Street Cry" missed by a nose racing at this level and distance at Del Mar on Aug. 16. Freshened up since, she's working fine and is an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #1 (Shrilanka) (3-1) - Nicely-bred filly hasn't seen action since she was beaten a "head" here last Sept. in the "Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf." Major threat if ready.

4th pick: #9 (Miss Charming) (8-1) - Longshot moves to the grass and stretches-out in distance off a pair of shorter races where she flashed a touch of early speed. "Live" price play.
