Top pick: #6 (RIDINGWITHTHEDEVIL) (8-5) - Mare is one of two entered here by trainer Dave Jacobson, and the pair race uncoupled. Claimed on Feb. 21st for $12.5K, the leading trainer has freshened her up since. Speed/stalker drops slightly and draws the best post at this trip in a small field. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (Subtle Humor) (2-1) - The second of the Jacobson pair, she's very lightly raced and running second back from a 4 1/2 month layoff. Filly rallied to finish second at this level in her return to action March 26, and she completes a strong duo from the barn.
3rd pick: #4 (Kleptocrat) (9-2) - She's moving up a bit in price for her first attempt at this 3l condition. Filly was an easy winner over weaker March 28, but she's improved overall and has been competitive in four of her last five starts.
