Top pick: #1 (MARIE ANTOINETTE) (5-2) - The probable favorite, she set a pressured pace and held gamely to finish second, beaten less than a length when debuting at this level and distance at Belmont Sept. 13th. In the Pletcher barn (37% second time out), and $160K yearling draws the rail.
2nd pick: #2 (Mobilize) (5-1) - $220K daughter of "War Front" has been freshened up since finishing second at Belmont, going 7-furlongs on Sept. 7th. Working well for this, and filly is bred to like this longer distance.
3rd pick: #4 (Truly Mizzed) (7-2) - Nice debut saw this daughter of "Mizzen Mast" rally to finish second, going a mile at Belmont on Oct. 11th. Trainer Dave Donk has worked her three times since, and filly must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #9 (Camryn's Gem) (12-1) - Longshot stretches out in distance, moves to the grass, and is making back-to-back starts, all for the first time. Well-bred, in the Mott barn, and a "live" longshot.
5th pick: #8 (Tizarocket) (6-1) - Daughter of "Tiznow" is another trying a longer trip and moving to the grass. Can factor, but needs to improve quite a bit.
