Top pick: #5 (EDEN'S MOON) - Highly thought of by trainer Bob Baffet, this $390K daughter of "Malibu Moon" has been freshened-up since a visually impressive maiden win here at this distance on Jan. 8. She had finished second in her debut to today's rival "Renee" when sprinting at Hollywood on Dec. 18. Working very fast for this and she's the choice in a talented field.

2nd pick: #7 (Reneesgotzip) - As mentioned above, she defeated "Eden" when both fillies debuted in the same race at Hollywood on Dec. 18. Daughter of "City Zip" followed that up with an easy win here on Jan. 15 in the Santa Ynez S.(G2) and is training very fast for what will be her first effort around two-turns.

3rd pick: #4 (Killer Graces) - The most experienced member of the field is (9-3-4-0) overall and finished second last out to today's foe "Will B Awesome" in the (G3) Santa Ysabel stakes here on Jan. 28. Filly likes to rate and finish, and today's pace looks to be fast/and or contested which will help her style out.
