Top pick: #7 (DEE STORM) (7-2) - She just missed (a "neck") here at this level and distance on Jan. 1 in her best race since returning from a 6 1/2 mont layoff Nov. 18. A repeat of it beats this crew.

2nd pick: #4 (Mavicsa) (5-2) - Veteran mare also ran second at this level and distance last out after finishing fourth in a pair of two-turn contests. She has more tactical speed than most and is a strong factor.

3rd pick: #1 (Boot N It) (2-1) - Old-timer ran second here at this level on Dec. 26 in her best since late July at Canterbury. Has the rail and is a stretch threat in this spot.

4th pick: #6 (Barstow) (5-1) - Lightly raced 5-year-old mare has finished third in three straight starts and last out was a bit over a length back of "Mavicsa." Can factor, but she'll need to step it up some to handle the top three selections.
