Premium Pick

Top pick: #1a (TALKING TREASURE) - In career-best shape at present, filly has proven that she likes this course (3-2-1-0) and has run well "two-turning" in the past. She should be positioned down the backstretch just off the rail runner and go by her heading for home.

2nd pick: #2 (Ice Cool Kitty) - Veteran mare won this race last season and appears well set-up by her connections for a repeat. She goes third off a layoff, has a sharp recent work, and draws the rail.

3rd pick: #7 (Raffie's Treasure) - Romped at this distance last out when a stakes event for state-breds was washed off the turf. Lightly raced and improving, this outside post is a difficult one and is viewed as a negative.
