Top pick: #4 (TWO BLUE HENS) (5-2) - Strong finisher rallied to win here at this tag on Jan. 5th racing on the dirt to clear the 2l condition, then raced evenly last out sprinting on the grass facing $40K foes. Drops, moves back to the main-track, and she should get a fast pace to close into.
2nd pick: #2 (Tempe) (2-1) - Filly knows how to win (seven for 13), and did so here in her local debut racing for a $16K tag on March 2. Speedy Arizona-bred was claimed that day by Bob Diodoro (27%), and he brings her back quickly with a slight raise in price.
3rd pick: #5 (Miss American Pie) (5-2) - Lightly raced, she has early speed, and races first off a Mark Glatt claim. She was only 1 1/2 back of "Tempe" last out, and was racing off almost a year's layoff. Win threat.
4th pick: #7 (Awe'Some Kitten) (5-1) - Fits on figures, and is working fast for her third off a 2 1/2 month break. She's never won on the dirt, but can factor with her best.
