Top pick: #5 (COCO ROSE) - Filly finished a close-up third when debuting in a sprint on the Woodbine "poly" Nov. 6 and she's been training nicely since. Trainer Eric Reed moves her to the turf and stretches her out in distance. Bred to handle the surface switch and she can win this at a nice price.
2nd pick: #3 (Stolen Artwork) - Heavily bet in her debut at Hawthorne she chased the pace and tired late to finish third. Working fast for this and she's a win candidate with any improvement in her second start.
3rd pick: #2 (Wear Red) - The probable favorite ships here from New York where she's run well in both her grass races. In the barn of Bill Mott and she's a win threat, though at a short price.
4th pick: #8 (Perfect Bliss) - Well-bred runner rallied to finish third in her debut at Laurel and her trainer (Graham Motion) will stretch her out this afternoon. Barn has good stats second time out and on the distance increase.
