TURF PARADISE Race #4

Premium Pick

Top pick: #4 (YONA ROCKET) - She's finished second in her last two starts facing much tougher and trainer Manny Ortiz will drop her down to the local bottom ($3500) and has her spotted where mare is much the horse to beat. A recent fine work on March 8 should "seal the deal."

2nd pick: #5 (Sasha B) - Well-bred filly only has one poor race in 9 tries and that came when she broke poorly in a race last summer at Assiniboia Downs. Speed/stalker fits here and comes off the best race of her career, a win here in the mud Feb. 21 racing for twice this price. The likely winner if the top pick fails.

3rd pick: #1 (Apache Girl) - Speedy, draws the rail, is much improved since a trainer switch to Tracie Aker, and she finished a pace-setting/pressing second last out at this level. Her speed makes her dangerous.
