Top pick: #1 (ACTION NINE) - Filly ran evenly facing tougher April 23 in her first since Dec 1. Trainer Brian Lynch drops her into a career soft spot and she draws the rail. Daughter of "War Front" is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #6 (Dusty's Player) - Three-time-winner finished 3rd at this price April 3 in a 5 furlong sprint and trainer Steve Asmussen has had her work 4 times since. Stretches out a furlong tonight and that's in her favor. Strong contender.
3rd pick: #5 (Wise trick) - She had a poor break last out in her first off a layoff but still managed to run 4th. Lightly raced, she went 3 for 6 on this surface last year and is a win candidate with her best.
