Top pick: #5 (DITA) - Speedy filly is working fast for her first start since Jan. 5 when she finished a pace-pressing third in a good field going two turns. Trainer Tom Bush adds blinkers this afternoon and this home-bred has a bullet work Mar 8 at Belmont, presumably with the hood on that she'll wear today. Faces a largely inexperienced group, and is the choice for the win.
2nd pick: #3 (Bazinga) - Probable favorite is working both fast and frequently for her debut and grey filly attracts Dominguez for her initial outing. In a good barn (Linda Rice) and this $19K 2-year-old purchase would be no surprise.
