Top pick: #1 (CASHMERE MUFFIN) (7-2) - Mare comes off a career best when she rallied from close range to miss by a length racing here at this level on Oct. 19th. It was her first race in three months and only her second ever on the grass. She has the rail and a repeat of her latest can win this.
2nd pick: #8 (Lips) (12-1) - Longshot has a fine overall record (18-5-2-5) and has run well in all her turf starts (3-0-1-2). All of those grass starts are local, and this Canadian bred can factor if ready for her first since July 12.
3rd pick: #2 (Amber Got Even) (3-1) - Veteran mare hasn't seen action since tiring here racing for twice this tag on April 2. She's won off of shorter layoffs in the past, and she's gone 18-3-3-3 on this course in the past. Can impact if ready.
4th pick: #4 (Wild Excess) (4-1) - Speed/stalker has been freshened up since a poor effort on the Zia Park dirt on Oct. 7th. Filly had been sharp there in her previous pair and has worked twice since arriving from New Mexico. Her early speed must be respected.
