Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (MY DINAH) - Speed/stalker tired facing "open" foes last out in a stakes at Monmouth and in her previous race finished a solid second at Belmont. She can rate today right off the expected quick pace and win this with a move on the far turn.

2nd pick: #5 (What a Pear) - She's regressed since winning the first four races of her career, but returns today to two-turn races vs. state-breds, something she's undefeated at. Looks set for a big wake-up call.

3rd pick: #1 (Yet Again) - Filly can "run all day" and she draws the ground saving rail. More than capable of winning this, especially if the pace is quick/contested.

4th pick: #8 (Afleet Alexandra) - As consistent as they come (19-7-8-3) and she proved last out (a win sprinting) that she can handle the local surface. Has several wins going two-turns but has never raced at nine furlongs before.
