Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (ADIEU MALLORY) (3-1) - Speedy filly finished a pace-setting third here at this level going 7 furlongs Dec. 28. Back on a quick turnaround, she shortens up a 1/16th of a mile and has leading rider Tim Thornton aboard for this attempt.
2nd pick: #8 (Granfathersleugirl) (5-2) - The morning line favorite, she was an impressive gate-to-wire maiden winner here at this distance Dec. 27. Speed/stalker earned a career best figure and is a win candidate in tonight's finale.
3rd pick: #3 (Diamond for Crider) (12-1) - Longshot has an even paced style that has carried her to three fourth place finishes in last four starts all at this level. The pace today may be fast/and or contested and that makes her dangerous at a big price.
4th pick: #10 (Ruby Red Slippers) (6-1) - Her wide post is not a plus, but with a patient ride this 6yo grey mare by 'Hansen' is a late threat if able to avoid losing too much ground.
